THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

CHAPTER I. 

INTRODUCTION. 

What profit has a man, if he gain riches 
and honor, and lose his own life ? 

It is discoverable by the Science of Mental 
Analysis that there are just four kinds of 
life, all of which are magnetic. They, in 
their correlated, lineal order, are elemental, 
mineral, vegetable and animal life. Being 
lineally correlated, they constitue an aggre- 
gate corporation of magnetic life, which orig- 
inated by one boundless, magnetic. Seed Law 
of Life. 

It is also discernible by proper investiga* 
tion, that the one magnetic Seed Law is cap- 
able of creating, governing and sustaining 
all things in Nature, and that when the 
human race get the knowledge of that Law 
and its magnetic workings in them, they can, 



6 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

by its proper use, obviate all sickness, pain 
and death, to which they are now subject 
from disease. 

When the human race had arrived at that 
degree of development in creation in which 
they had a normal brain organism and nerve 
system, in which they are, in the Bible, figur- 
atively called Adam, they had, through the 
abilities of that brain and nerve system, a 
conditional birthright to everlasting life, as 
shown figuratively in Genesis ii. 7, 8. But 
through the omission, which became the com- 
mission, of an unavoidable wrong act, they 
lost that birthright and became again .subject 
to vanity and death, as figuratively implied in 
Genesis ii. 17 and iii. 24. 

That wrong act is usually called the orig- 
inal sin of the world. In the figurative lan- 
guage of the Bible, it is set forth as the cause 
of the death of the human race from that 
time to the present, as figuratively implied in 
Komans v. 12, 13. 

The Bible also teaches that there are two 
degrees in the development of the human 
race, which is figuratively called Adam. —

THE BOOK OF LIFE. 7 

See 1 Cor. xv. 45. Natural philosophy teach- 
es that the name Adam means added man, 
which is the mind being, or inner man, as 
figuratively implied in Ephesians iii. 16 and 
Romans xii. 2. 

It is also taught in the Bible that as the 
human race lost their birthright to everlast- 
ing life through the unavoidable wrong act 
of the first Adam, or mind being, so also it 
will be restored to them through the right 
acts of the Second Adam, or Second Mind 
Being in them, as figuratively shown in i. 
Corinthians xv. 45 and Romans v. 12-12. 

For Bible proof that the first Adam, or 
inner man, did not willingly commit that 
wrong act, which is often called the original 
sin of the world, see Romans viii. 20, 21. 

The great question which arises out of 
these facts are. What was that wrong act of 
the first Adam? how did it make the whole 
human race again subject to vanity and 
death? and how can its effects be obviated? 

To get the key to this subject we must bear 
in mind that there was in the Bible figure or 
parable a Tree representing the first Adam's, 



8 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

or inner mind being's, case, from which they 
ate some fruit which somewhat opened the 
eyes of their understanding, so that they 
knew they were naked. And they, thinking 
that an invisible Person was telling them 
the truths which were generating in their 
own minds, through their instinctive and 
thoughtful investigations of themselves and 
their surroundings, were ashamed to be seen 
by Him, and were afraid of Him, and hid 
themselves, and ceased making further inves- 
tigations about Him. That omisision was 
and is the original and perpetual sin of man- 
kind, as implied in Genesis iii. 1-13. 

The next important question is. What kind 
of a tree was that, the fruit of which gave 
them the knowledge that they were naked? 
Oh ! it was the tree of the knowledge of good 
and evil. Read it in Genesis iii. 16, 17. 
Because the workings of the creating, gov- 
erning and sustaining magnetic Seed Law of 
Life in the kingdoms of nature does produce 
both good and evil, it follows that when men 
ceased investigating its workings, they 
ceased getting the true knowledge of them- 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 9 

selv.es, their surroundings, and the invisible 
God Power which had so far created and 
developed them, and was inspiring or gener- 
ating those instinctive thoughts in their 
minds. (See Isaiah xlv. 5-7.) Had they con- 
tinued to investigate, and so partake of that 
fruit which was the knowledge of good and 
evil, it would have given them the true 
knowledge of that creating, governing and 
sustaining God Power of nature, which would 
have been the Tree of Life, or everlasting life 
in them, as implied in Genesis ii. 9 and iii. 
5-7. 

As the aggregate workings of the magnetic 
Seed Law of Life in the kingdoms of nature 
are figuratively represented as the ^^Tree of 
the knowledge of good and evil," and as the 
knowledge of its magnetic Seed Laws, and 
their proper use, will bring everlasting life 
to the human race, that knowledge, when in- 
spired in their minds in all its roots and 
branches, is figuratively called the Tree of 
Life, as implied in Genesis ii. 9 and iii. 24. 

In Proverbs iii. 13-18 it is written that wis- 
flom is a Tree of Life to them that get it. 



10 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

Natural philosophy tells us that when any- 
thing is represented by a Tree, in the figur- 
ative language of the Bible, it represents the 
thing, subject, or corporation in all its roots 
and branches. So we find that the ''Tree of 
the knowledge of good and evir' represents 
the good and evil workings of the magnetic 
Seed Law of Life in the kingdoms of nature ; 
and that the knowledge of its workings is 
the fruit thereof^ which is wisdom in its full- 
ness. 

Those philosophic, figurative, Bible state- 
ments tell us that the true knowledge of the 
creating, governing and sustaining magnetic 
Seed Law of Life, and of its good and evil 
workings, will be the means of restoring to 
the human race their lost birthright to ever- 
lasting life, in its own due time and way. 

Hence it is the author's purpose in writing 
this little book to introduce the boundless, 
self-existent seed beginning of the creating, 
governing and sustaining magnetic seed 
Law of Life, and its good and evil workings 
in the four kingdoms of nature, so that all 
people may get the true knowledge of it, 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 11 

pure and unadulterated, from the Theocratic 
kingdom of nature itself, and so find their 
lost birthright to everlasting life. 

If it can be clearly shown that the above- 
mentioned Law of Life is capable of creating, 
governing and sustaining all things, the only 
Theological question to be decided is whether 
or not the said Law is merely acting as the 
Agent for an outside supernatural Person, 
called God. This all may decide for them- 
selves from the tangible evidence obtainable 
from the visible things of nature and the 
workings of the Law in them. 

Paul's advice in i. Thessalonians v. 21 is 
to prove all things and retain that which is 
good (or evidently true). By this he implies 
that there is tangible evidence by which all 
true Theological ideas, and the living God 
also, can be manifested and proven. 

Natural philosophy and the figurative lan- 
guage of the Bible being in perfect harmony, 
we will present them jointly as our authority 
in this book, and so endeavor to show the 
true philosophic meaning of the different 
features of the figures set forth in the garden 



12 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

parable, in the second, third and fourth chap- 
ters of Genesis; so making manifest what 
the garden, the trees, the serpent, the woman, 
and the Lord God represent; why that act 
of the first Adam was unavoidable; and 
how its effects will be obviated in the human 
race, so that their lost birthright will be 
restored to them. 



CHAPTER 11. 

THE INTRODUCTION AND CONSTRUCTION OF 
THE INFINITE, SELF-EXISTENT, SEED 
WORD, WHICH WAS IN THE BEGINNING, BY 
AND OF WHICH ALL THINGS WERE MADE. 

There is an absolute, creating, governing 
and sustaining Power, which may properly 
be called God and Father. This is perhaps 
universally conceded. But the great vital 
question which confronts the minds of the 
human race is. Of what does that creative 
Power couvsist ? and in what way is it genea- 
logically related to the human race ? 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 13 

Natural philosophy and the figurative lan- 
guage of the Bible both tell us that the rela- 
tionship existing between parent and child 
must be directly lineal, in kind, in order to 
be personally true, as clearly implied in Luke 
iii. 23-38. 

Jesus, who is standard Bible authority, and 
who, men say, was the direct Son of a per- 
sonal God, said he was the direct Son of'^'^ 
man, and the lineal, correlated Son of God. — 
See Matt. xvi. 13-28. He repeatedly calls 
himself the Son of man, in both Matthew and 
John. 

Natural philosophy and the figurative lan- 
guage of the Bible both tell us that the cre- 
ating, governing and sustaining Power of 
the universe is that which is figuratively 
called the Lord God, as clearly implied in 
Isaiah xlv. 

In John i. 1-3, we are figuratively told that 
in the beginning was the Word, and the 
Word was with God, and the AA^ord was 
God. The same was in the beginning with 
God, and that all things were made by that 
Word which was God — which the writer calls 



14 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

Him. He personifies that which he first calls 
the Word, and also God, by the use of the 
personal pronoun. By saying that the Word 
was with God in the beginning, he implies 
that it was self -existent. 

The creative Power of the universe is per- 
sonified in the figurative language of the 
Bible, in both masculine and feminine gend- 
ers by the use of the personal pronouns — 
Him and His in John i. 1-3 and Romans i. 
20, and Her in Genesis iii. 15, Proverbs ix. 
1, 2, Mark iv. 28 and Revelations xii. 1, 2. 

The true answer to the ancestral question 
can only be obtained by mentally tracing the 
material things of nature lineally back to 
their seed beginning, and there discover 
their true origin and the Life Power that 
created them. 

In Romans i. 20, it is written that his in- 
visible Powers from the beginning are clear- 
ly seen, being understood by the things that 
are made, even his everlasting power and 
divinity. — See Revised Version. 

Natural philosophy tells us that all things 
with which the human race are lineally cor- 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 15 

related, and in and of which they live, move 
and have their being, consist in the four 
kingdoms of nature, cooperatively with the 
sun, moon and the other bodies of the plane- 
tary system. 

Those four kingdoms, in their lineal, cor- 
related order, are : First, the atmospheric, 
or heaven kingdom; second, the earth, or 
mineral kingdom ; third, the vegetable king- 
dom; and fourth, the animal kingdom. 

These four kingdoms are constituted of so 
many correlated kinds of being, that we will 
not now attempt to trace them lineally back 
to their seed beginning in detail; neither is 
it necessary, as that has been done by scien- 
tists, in tracing from the elements up to man. 
But, because we want to go still farther back 
than they did, and discover the self-existent 
seed beginning or Seed Word, we will mere- 
ly trace them in their aggregate lineal and 
successive order. 

Natural philosophy and the figurative 
language of the Bible both tell us that the 
vegetable and animal kingdoms developed 
out of the mineral and atmospheric king- 



16 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

doms ; and that the atmospheric and mineral 
kingdoms, and also the planetary system, 
developed out of that which preceded them, 
which is called deep darkness, in Genesis i. 
2. This carries our mind back to boundless 
empty Space as the seed beginning of all 
things. 

Natural philosophy tells us that it is an 
unchangeable law of nature that all things, 
in order to have an actual existence, must 
have their own kind and size of body, their 
own kind and amount of self-existence, or 
original life being, their own kind and 
amount of durability, or life power of con- 
tinuance in being, and a portion of space of 
their own size and shape in which to exist, 
and that all beings when normally developed 
become generators of their own kinds. 

That boundless. Constituent Law speaks, 
by its boundless nature, and positively 
affirms that, if boundleiss Space was the 
self-existent Seed AVord which was the be- 
ginning, it will be able to speak, by its own 
boundless nature and establish and manifest 
its infinite, self-existent Beinof, in accord- 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 17 

ance with that boundless^ constituent Seed 
Law. 

In Mark iv. 22, Jesus tells us that there is 
nothing hid that shall not be manifested; 
neither was anything kept secret that shall 
not come forth. So boundless Space spake, 
by its boundless, vacuous nature, and positve- 
ly affirmed that it was its own boundless 
vacuous kind of Body. 

It further spake, and positively affirmed 
that, because it was boundless, it could not 
have been created; for all created things 
have boundary lines; so it was evidently its 
own kind of boundless, original Life Being. 
It further affirmed that, because it was a 
boundless, solid body of vacuum^ it could not 
perish, or cease to be. 

It evidently was its own boundless kind of 
life, power of continuance in being, and was 
its own boundless space in which it could be 
without limit. 

As all kinds of bodies and live.:; have their 
proper names, in accordance with their posi- 
tions in the corporation of nature, the proper 
name of the vacuum body of boundless space 



18 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

was Way. As all kinds of ways and bodies 
were in it, in embryo or latent seed form, 
in the beginning, and because it always ex- 
isted, the proper name for its original Life 
Being was Self-existence, and the proper 
name for its power of continuance in being 
was Durability. 

Boundless Space spake again, by its bound- 
less, vacuous nature, and positively affirmed 
that these three single kinds of being — Way, 
Self-existence and Durability — were the 
single three third parts — the whole — -of its 
vacuous, corporate being, in single round 
numbers; and that it — boundless Space — as 
the kind of being in which they could exist 
boundlessly, was a fourth kind. These four 
kinds of beings — Space, Way, Self-existence 
and Durability — were the lineal, correlated 
and inseparable four quarters — the whole — 
of its boundless corporate being, in single, 
amalgated, round and square numbers, in 
accordance with the boundless, constituent 
Law. 

So Boundless Space evidently established 
and manifested its own boundless, self- 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 19 

existent Being; and also established and 
manifested the boundless, constituent Law 
of Nature, in its corporate Being, in embryo, 
or latent seed form ; and that, because it had 
always existed naturally, it was Nature it- 
self. 

The boundless constituent Law spake 
again, by its boundless nature, and positively 
affirmed that, boundless Space must always 
remain alone, as the only legally constituted, 
boundless, corporate Being; as it had taken 
itself, and the whole of its only three single, 
boundless, vacuous, constituent kinds of be- 
ing to legally constitute its own corporate 
Being in single, round numbers; it being 
boundless, there could not be anything out- 
side of, or separate from it, in or of which 
any other kind of thing could be made, or in 
which it could exist. 

Besides this, in accordance with the bound- 
less, constituent Law, each of these three 
single, constituent kinds of beings --Way, 
Self-existence and Durability — must be leg- 
ally constituted corporate beings before they 
could legally constitute boundless Space. 



20 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

The boundless ancestral seed law inter- 
posed, and by its boundless nature, spake and 
positively affirmed that, although this would 
be impossible to a finite being, yet space be- 
ing infinite, there is no legal generating act 
or acts, impossible with it, and that its three 
single, constituent kinds of beings must 
legally constitute themselves, interchange- 
ably and reciprocally, so giving them their 
own boundless kind of body, life being and 
life power of continuance in being, and their 
own boundless space in which to be bound- 
lessly. And by their reciprocal, generating 
acts they must also establish and manifest 
the boundless, ancestral seed law of nature, 
in their legally constituted constitutions, in 
embryo or latent seed form. 

First boundless way by its boundless, 
vacuous nature, spake and positvely affirmed 
that it naturally had boundless, self-exist- 
ence as its) original life being, that it natural- 
ly had boundless durability as its life power 
of continuance in being, that it was naturally 
its own boundless way and vacuous kind of 
body, that these three boundles3 kinds of 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 21 

being were the lineal correlated three third 
parts, the whole of its corporate being, in 
single round numbers, these three united 
kinds constituted its own boundless space 
in which it could be boundlessly, and that 
these four kinds of being were the lineal 
correlated four quarters, the whole of its 
corporate being in single amalgamated round 
and square numbers in accordance with the 
boundless, constituent seed law. 

The boundless, constituent law spake 
again, and positively affirmed that, in accord- 
ance with it, boundless way must always 
remain alone as the only boundless kind 
of corporate Way and Body in existence; 
for it had taken the whole of the only other 
three single, original, vacuous kinds of 
Being — Space, Self-existence and Durability 
— to legally constitute its corporate Being, 
and it being boundless and vacuous there 
could not be anything outside of, or separ- 
ate from it, of which any other kind of body 
or way could be made. 

Then the boundless ancestral Seed Law 
spake again, by its boundless nature, and 



22 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

positively affirmed tliat boundless "Way could 
not remain alone as the only legally con- 
stituted kind of boundless, body and life 
Being, for in accordance with it (the bound- 
less, ancestral Seed Law), boundless Ways 
legally constituted, or normally developed, 
corporate Being, elected it the lineal, corre- 
lated, ancestral, seed kind of Being, in which 
and of which the next lineal, correlated, suc- 
ceeding, vacuous, corporate kind of body and 
life Being, which was boundless Self-exist- 
tence, must naturally and unavoidably ori- 
ginate, generate, develop and subsist. 

As the one in which the corporate Being 
of Self-existence must originate, boundless 
Way was a fifth lineal, correlated, successive, 
constituent kind of its own corporate Being, 
and a first lineal, correlated, ancestral seed 
kind of Self-existence's corporate Being. 

As the boundless seed Being, of which Self- 
existence must generate and fully develop 
its corporate parts, boundless Way was a 
sixth lineal, correlated, successive, con- 
stituent kind of its owm corporate Being, and 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. ^['^ 23 

a second lineal, correlated, ancestral seed 
kind of Self-existence's corporate Being. 

As the ancestral, seed Being, in which 
boundless Self-existence must consist, bound- 
less Way, was evidently a seventh lineal, 
correlated, successive, constituent seed kind 
of its own corporate Being, and a third lineal, 
correlated, ancestral seed kind of Self-exist- 
ence's corporate Being. 

The boundless, ancestral Seed Law spake 
again, by its boundless nature, and positively 
affirmed that boundless Way was also the 
lineal, correlated, ancestral seed kind of 
Being, in and of which all succeeding kinds 
of bodies and their kinds of ways, must nat- 
urally and unavoidably originate, generate 
and consist, boundless Way, as the one in 
which they must all originate, was evidently 
an eighth lineal, correlated, successive, con- 
stituent kind of its own corporate Being, and 
first lineal, correlated, ancestral seed kind 
of all succeeding kinds of bodies, and their 
kinds of ways, in the four succeeding king- 
doms of nature 

Boundless Way, as the one of which all 



24 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

succeeding kinds must generate and develop, 
was evidently a ninth lineal, correlated, suc- 
cessive, constituent kind of its) own cor- 
porate Being, and a second lineal, correlated, 
ancestral seed kind of all succeeding kinds 
of bodies, their kinds of ways and lives, as 
the one in which all succeeding kinds of 
ways and bodies must consist. Boundless 
Way was evidently a tenth lineal, correlated, 
constituent kind of its own vacuous corpor- 
ate Being, and a third lineal, correlated, an- 
cestral seed kind of all succeeding kinds of 
bodies and their kinds of ways and lives. 

Then Self-existence spake, by its bound- 
less, vacuous nature, and positively affirmed 
that it also naturally had boundless Way as 
its kind of body ; that it naturally had bound- 
less Durability as its kind of life power of 
continuance in being; that it was naturally 
its own boundless, original kind of self- 
existence or life being ; that those three kinds 
of being also constituted the lineal, corre- 
lated three third parts — ^the whole — of its 
boundless corporate Being, in single round 
numbers: that these three united kinds also 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 25 

constituted its boundless Space, in which it 
could exist boundlessly; and that these four 
kinds were also the lineal, correlated four 
quarters — the whole — of its corporate Being, 
in single, amalgamated, round and square 
numbers, in accordance with the boundless, 
constituent Law. 

The boundless constituent Law spake 
again, by its boundless nature, and 
positively affirmed that, in accordance with 
it, boundless Self-existence must always re- 
main alone, as the only boundle::,s Self- 
existent Being; for it had taken boundless 
Way and the whole of its other three only 
original, constituent kinds of Being to legal- 
ly constitute it, and that there could not be 
two separate boundless, Self-existent Be- 
ings. 

The boundless, ancestral Seed Law spake 
again, by its boundless nature, and positively 
affirmed that, in accordance with it, bound- 
less Self-existence could not remain alone, 
as the only boundless Self-existent Being, 
for its legally constituted corporate Being 
elected it the lineal, correlated, ancestral

seed Being, in and of whicli the next lineal, 
correlated, succeeding, corporate kind of 
vacuous Being, which was boundless Dura- 
bility, must naturally and unavoidably ori- 
ginate and generate its boundless corporate 
parts, and in which it must also consist ; and 
that boundless Self-existence, in these three 
ancestral seed capacities, was evidently a 
fifth, sixth and seventh lineal, correlated, 
successive, constituent seed kind of its own 
corporate Being, and a first, second and third 
ancestral seed kind of boundless Durability's 
corporate Being. 

The generating Seed Law spake again, by 
its boundless nature, and positively affirmed 
that boundless Self-existence was also the 
lineal, correlated, self-existent, precedent, 
vacuous, ancestral, seed kind of Being, in 
and of which all succeeding kinds of self- 
existent Beings originated, and generated, 
and in which they consist. 

Boundless Self-existence, in these three 
ancestral seed capacities, was evidently also 
an eighth, ninth and tenth lineal, correlated, 
successive, constituent seed kind of its own 



Q 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 27 

vacuous corporate Being, and a first, Ji:econd 
and third lineal, correlated, ancestral seed 
kind of all succeeding kinds, and degrees of 
self-existent Beings, in the four succeed- 
ing kingdoms of nature, and also in the 
planetary system. 

Then boundless Durability spake, by its 
own boundless, vacuous nature, and posi- 
tively affirmed that it also naturally had 
boundle::s Way as its boundless, vacuous 
kind of body; that it naturally had bound- 
less Self-existence as its kind of original Life 
Being, and that it was naturally its own 
boundless, original Ldfe Power of continu- 
ance in Being ; that these three single kinds 
were also its lineal, correlated and insepara- 
ble three third parts — the whole — of its 
boundless corporate Being, in single round 
cross numbers, and that the three united 
kinds of Being also constituted its boundless 
Space, in which it could be boundlessly. 

Those four kinds of Beings — Self-exist- 
ence, Durability, Way and Space — were also 
the lineal, correlated and inseparable four 
quarters — the whole — of its constituent, cor- 



28 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

porate Being, in single, amalgamated, round 
and square numbers. 

The boundless constituent Law spake 
again, and positively affirmed that, in ac- 
cordance with it, boundless Durability must 
always remain alone, as the only boundless 
durable Being, for it had taken itself and 
the whole of the only other three original, 
boundless, vacuous kinds of Being to legally 
constitute its vacuous, corporate Being, it 
being boundless there could not be any dura- 
ble thing outside of, or separate from it, of 
which any kind of Being could be made, or 
in which it could exist. 

The boundless, generating Seed Law spake 
again, by its boundless nature, and positively 
affirmed that Durability could not remain 
alone, as the only boundless durable Being, 
for in accordance with it (the ancestral Seed 
Law), boundless Durability's legally con- 
stituted corporate Being elected it the lineal, 
correlated, ancestral seed kind of Being, in 
and of which the next lineal, correlated, suc- 
ceeding boundless, corporate seed kind of 
Being, which was boundless Duration, must 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 29 

naturally and unavoidably originate, develop 
and consist. 

Boundless Durability, in these three ances- 
tral seed capacities, was evidently a fifth, 
sixth and seventh lineal, correlated, succes- 
sive, constituent seed kind of its own cor- 
porate Being, and a first, second and third 
lineal, correlated, ancestral seed kind of 
boundless Duration's corporate Being. 

The boundless ancestral Seed Law spake 
again, and positively affirmed that bound- 
less Durability was also the lineal, correlated, 
ancestral Seed Being, in and of which all 
succeeding species of durable Beings must 
naturally and unavoidably originate, develop 
and consist. 

In these three ancestral seed capacities, 
boundless Durability was evidently an 
eighth, ninth and tenth lineal, correlated, 
successive seed kind of its own vacuous cor- 
porate Being, and a first, second and third 
ancestral seed kind of all succeeding dura- 
ble kinds of Beings. These three single, con- 
Gtituent , vacuous seed kinds of Beings — Way, 
Self-existence and Durability — spake, by 



30 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

their own boundless, representative, generat- 
ing seed acts, and positively affirmed that 
they legally constituted themselves, inter- 
changeably, in of and by themselves, in 
boundless Space, in single, amalgamated, 
round and square numbers, in accordance 
with both the constituent and the ancestral 
Seed Laws of Nature ; and thereby also es- 
tablished and manifested those seed Laws 
in their boundless constitutions, in perpetual, 
interchangeable, generating, governing and 
sustaining, constituent and ancestral seed 
order ; so that when either of them is named 
or referred to first, it immediately generates 
or converts the others into its own name and 
corporate kind; and so becomes the 
whole boundless corporation, for the time 
being, perpetually and interchangeably. 

It is also evident that although the bound- 
less affirmations made by these two Laws — 
the constituent and the ancestral — in the 
representative process of reciprocally gen- 
erating these three boundless, corporate 
kinds of Beings, were each positively true, 
yet they were each also positively negative 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 31 

and contradictory one to tlie other, in each of 
the three cases, alternately and interchange- 
ably. 

As the constituent Law was the first posi- 
tive, affirmative one, the ancestral Seed Law 
was the first positive negative, contradictory 
one; and it follows that the ancestral Seed 
Law, by its boundless generating seed acts, 
became the first positive, affirmative Gen- 
erating Seed Law; and the constituent Law 
then became the positive, negative and con- 
tradictory Law ; so they were each both posi- 
tive and negative perpetually and inter- 
changeably. This will be the same through- 
out all creation. 

The two boundless Laws naturally and un- 
avoidably united themselves together into 
one lineal, correlated, perpetual, interchange- 
able, double, positive and negative, precedent 
and successive, constituent and ancestral, 
generating and compound regenerating, 
governing and sustaining, magnetic Seed 
Law of Life, which evidently always existed 

in the corporate constitutions of these three 
boundless, self-existent, vacuous, corporate 
Beings. 



32 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

These first three single, vacuous, con- 
stituent seed kinds of Being representatively 
generated themselves, up through them- 
selves, into one boundless, positive and nega- 
tive, perpetual, interchangeable, precedent 
and successive, constituent and ancestral, 
generating and compound regenerating, 
governing and sustaining, Seed Corporation, 
with that infiinite Seed Law of Life in it. 

The boundless generating Seed Law spake 
again, and positively affirmed that, because 
their interchangeable generating or multi- 
plying acts were perpetual, they became so 
numerous and complicated that they cannot 
be traced and narrated in detail; so they 
must be represented in numeral, mathemati- 
cal order; and that the number of the ten 
single, constituent and ancestral seed kinds 
of Beings will constitute the ten numeral 
digits, by which that can be accomplished, 
and so be manifested to the natural eye, and 
conveyed to the minds of the human race. 

That boundless evolutionary Generating 
Seed Law, which is also the basis of Natural 
Philosophy, tells us that the mind being, or 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 33 

inner man, who is able to analyze these 
infiinite vacuous Beings, and so discover their 
construction, will also be able to arrange the 
ten digits in mathematical order, as they 
exist in boundless space, so that the above- 
stated required results can be obtained from 
them. 

The first position in which these numbers 
are placed w^ill be shown in the following 
Example : 

No. 1—1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. 

As boundless Space, and those boundless 
vacuous kinds of Beings in it, are invisible 
to all the five outer senses of the brain and 
nerve system of the human race, w^hich are 
seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting and feel- 
ing, to them boundless Space is supposed to 
be nothing ; so we will also delineate it, and 
its constituent kinds of Being, in scientific,, 
diagrammatic form, as they exist in bound- 
less Space, so that they can be seen by the 
natural eye; and also show how they can 
generate their own kinds of Being perpetual- 
ly, in accordance with the constituent and an- 
cestral, generating Seed Laws of Nature. 



34 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

The first lineal kind of Being — which is 
boundless Space — can be scientifically repre- 
sentiCd by one complete circular line of any 
size. A circle represents an endless line, as 
it may be traversed perpetually, and its ends 
cannot be reached, for it is endless, as illus- 
trated by the following diagram. No. 1 : 

The other three boundless lineal kinds are 
represented by three endless lines extending 
throughout boundless Space, in triangular, 
cross, and round form, so that their united 
points divide the outside circle, which repre- 
sents boundless Space, into three equal, in- 
separable third parts, as shown in Diagram 
No. 2. 

The three lineal kinds also form three 
boundless, trihedrons, Avhich also extend 
throughout boundless Space. Though there 
seems to be but one trihedron, yet, by look- 
ing into the circle from each of the three 
sides, it may be seen that there are three 
of them, and that each of the three side- 
lines have the other correlated, lineal kinds, 
which, with their own single, side-line, form 
their trihedron cross, as the three bound- 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 35 




Diagram No. 1. 



36 THE BOOK OF LIFE: 

less third parts — the whole — of their bound- 
less corporate Being, in single round num- 
bers in each case. 

Their three boundless, united kinds of 
Being constitute their own boundless Space, 
in which they can be boundlessly, which is 
represented by their own portion of the out- 
side circle, in each case. 

The four kinds are the lineal, correlated 
and inseparable four quarters — the whole — 
of each of their boundless corporate Beings^ 
in single, amalgamated, round and square 
numbers, interchangeably and perpetually, 
in accordance with the boundless, constituent 
Law of Nature. 

Here we want to notice that, because Space 
is boundless, any line, or angular cross, ex- 
tending through it in any direction, is an 
endless or boundless line, and seed cross of 
those three kinds of Beings. 

The five lineal, constituent and ancestral 
seed kinds of Being are represented by five 
endless lines extending throughout bound- 
less Space, in fifth angular form, so that 
their united points divide the outer circle — 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 



37 




Diagram No. 2. 



38 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

whicli represents boundless Space — into five 
equal, inseparable parts. 

These five cross-lines also form five amal- 
gamated ^right-angled triangled, four square, 
and round lineal seed crosses, whicli extend 
throughout boundless Space, as illustrated 
by Diagram No. 3. 

Although there seems to be but two of 
these triangles, yet, by looking into the circle 
from each of the five sides, it may be seen 
that there are five of them, and that by cross- 
ing each other, they divide each line into 
three parts, which represent their three con- 
stituent kinds of Being; and each insepara- 
ble division of the outside ci*rcle represents 
the fourth kind, which is their boundless 
Space, in which, in each case, they can be 
boundlessly. 

Their whole boundless Space, as the one 
in which they all originated, was their fifth 
constituent, and first ancestral, seed kind of 
Being, in each case. As the one of which 
they all generated their corporate kinds of 
Being, it was a sixth successive, constituent 
kind of its own Being, and a second ances-

•Space.-

40 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

tral seed kind of all its other kinds of Being. 
As the one in which they all consist, (bound- 
less Space) was a seventh successive, con- 
stituent seed kind of its own Being, and 
a third ancestral seed kind of all the other 
vacuous kinds of Beings, in each case. 

As the lineal, correlated and inseparable, 
precedent, ancestral seed kind of Being, in 
and of which all succeeding kinds of things 
and beings must originate, generate and con- 
sist, it was evidently an eighth, ninth and 
tenth boundless, successive, contituent kind 
of its own boundless, vacuous, corporate 
Being, and a first, second and third lineal, 
correlated and inseparable, precedent, ances- 
tral, seed kind of all succeeding kinds of 
beings, perpetually and interchangeably. 
As previously stated, by their own bound- 
less affirmations, and as also shown by the 
ten numbers in Example No. 1, the cipher 
and its associated first digit, i, which con- 
stitute the last number, 10, in our example, 
make it the first also, as the naught (or 
cipher) also represents our first circle, which 
represents boundless Space, as No. 1 which 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 41 

will always be both the first and the last, 
throughout creation, as gray hairs represent 
old age. See the personification or figur- 
ative representation of this in Revelation 
i. 8, 14. 

As these three first boundless kinds of 
Beings were each both positive and negative, 
it follows that as negatives they each had 
the same number of constituents and ances- 
tral kinds of Being as they had as positives;* 
so they added their ten single positives, and 
their ten single negative kinds together, 
which made twenty single, positive and nega- 
tive constituent and ancestral seed kinds of 
Being, as illustrated in Example No. 2 and 3.

We will also delineate them in their posi- 
tive and negative diagrammatic form in Dia- 
grams Nos. 4 and 5. 

It may be seen from Diagram No. 4 — 
which represents the three single constituent 
kinds — that it now has other three endless 
cross-lines, which extend throughout the 
globe, in triangular, cross, and round 
form, and which divide the outside circle — 
which represents boundless Space — into six 
equal, inseparable parts, and which also 
form three other boundless, trihedrons, 
extending throughout boundless Space; so 
that it now has six trihedrons in it. While 
it seems to have only two, yet, by looking 
into the circle from each of the six sides, it 
may be seen that it has six of them, and that 
each of the six lineal kinds have the other 
two lineal kinds, which form their trihe- 
dron lineal seed cross of kinds of Being, 
interchangeably in each case; they make 
the three negative, boundless third parts — 
the whole — of their negative corporate 
Being, in single round numbers and form, 
in each case perpetually and interchange-

Diagram No. 4. 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 45 

ably. And each of their three united, lineal 
kinds of Being also constitute their own 
boundless Space, as the one in which they 
can be boundlessly. 

These four united kinds make the lineal, 
correlated negative four quarters — the whole 
— of each of their boundless corporate Being, 
in single, amalgamated, round and square 
numbers and flat form, as previously veri- 
fied by their own boundless affirmations, 
and also as represented in mathematical 
order, by the first four digits in Example 
No. 2. 

It may also be seen that the triangular 
lines also become parallel, and form six 
oblong, four-square and round lineal crosses 
of seed kinds, extending throughout bound- 
less Space, which represents the four kinds. 
Their portion of the outside circle repre- 
sents the round in each cas€, and the parallels 
represent the square. 

It may also be seen from Diagram No. 
5 — which represents the five lineal, corre- 
lated, constituent and ancestral kinds of 
Being — that there are now five other end- 



40 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 




Diagram No. 5. 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 47 

less, lines, extending throughout the bound- 
less globe, in fifth angular form; these are 
the five negatives, which, when added to 
the five positives, make their ten single, 
boundless, positive and negative, constituent 
and ancestral, lineal seed kinds of Being, in 
single, flat form, as shown also by the two 
fifth positive and negative digits, in Exam- 
ples Nos. 1 and 2, in mathematical order. 

These ten cross-lines also form ten bound- 
less, triangles, the united points of which j 
divide the outside circle into ten equal, in- 
separable parts. Although there seems to 
be only two of these triangles, by looking 
into the circle from each of the ten sides, 
it may be seen that there are ten of them; 
and also that the ten triangular lines become 
parallel, and form ten parallel, square, and 
round crosses, extending throughout bound- 
less Space, which parallel lines represent the 
four kinds and the triangular lines represent 
the three kinds. 

This shows that the single, round and 
square numbers are amalgamated in the fifth 
constituent and first ancestral seed kind, in 



48 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

each sase, perpetually and interchangeably, 
in invisible bodily form, in boundless Space. 

Their own boundless Space made the sixth 
and seventh successive, negative, constituent 
and ancestral, vacuous kinds of Being, in 
each case perpetually and interchangeably. 

Their boundless, corporate Beings also 
made the eighth, ninth and tenth sucessive, 
negative, constituent seed kinds of their own 
boundless, corporate Being, and the first, 
second and third boundless, negative, prece- 
dent vacuous, ancestral seed kinds of all suc- 
ceeding kinds of beings, in the four succeed- 
ing kingdoms of nature, as also illustrated 
in Examples Nos. 1-2. 

The boundless constituent Law spake 
again, and positively affirmed that, because 
these three first, single, constituent kinds 
of Being did so legally constitute 
themselves of themselves interchange- 
ably, it is evident that their constituent off- 
spring — which are those twenty kinds, as 
shown in Example No. 3 — are yet single 
kinds of Being, who must be legally con- 
stituted, corporate Beings, before they can 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 49 

legally constitute the three first, single, con- 
stituent kinds, so that they can legally con- 
stitute the boundless corporate Being of 
boundless Space. 

The boundles, generating Seed Law spake 
again, and positively affirmed that they 
must multiply the twenty kinds by the three 
single constituent kinds of being, which were 
way, self-existence and durability, as; shown 
in our Example No. 4.

To give each of them their own kind of 
body, life being, and life power of continu- 
ance in being, those three kinds will make 
the lineal, corelated three third parts, the 
w^hole of their boundless, corporate being, 
in single round numbers, the three united 
kinds in each case constitute their own 
boundless Space, in which they can exist 
boundlessly. 

It may be seen that those 20 kinds would 
be then legally constituted, corporate beings, 
in accordance with the boundless, contituent 
and ancestral seed law of nature, but their 
product, or off-spring, which are those 60 
degrees of their own kinds of being, as shown 
in the product of our Example No. 4, are 
evidently still single, constituent and ances- 
tral vacuous kinds of Being, which must also 
be legally constituted corporate Beings be- 
fore they can legally enter into the constitu- 
tion of those twenty constituent and ances- 
tral kinds. 

To accomplish this, they cross, multiply 
their single kinds of Being, as in our Exam- 
ple No. 4, by their legally constituted cor- 



52 THE BOOK OF LIFE 

porate kinds of Being, as in Example No. 3, 
as f ollowiS : First, they multiply their sixty 
single working and resting kinds, in the right 
hand side of Example No. 4, by their sdx leg- 
ally constituted kinds, in Example No. 3, the 
legal product of which — six times sixty — 
makes the 360 working and resting, constit- 
uent and ancestral, representative degrees of 
all succeeding things in the four kingdoms of 
nature, as shown in our Example No. 5, 
under the sixty in the right hand side of 
Example No. 4.

54 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

After multiplying the sixty by six, as 
above, they next multiply their 48 single 
working kinds in Example No. 4, by their 
six legally constituted seed kinds, in Exam- 
ple No. 3. The legal product of 6 times 
48 makes the 288 representative, working, 
constituent and ancestral degrees of all 
things in the succeeding four kingdoms of 
nature. Because the eighth, ninth and tenth 
kinds — as in our Examples 1 and 2 — were the 
representatives of the four succeeding king- 
doms of nature, they are evidently not work- 
ing, or generating, degrees of those vacuous 
kinds of Being; so we cut them and their 
seed product out from the vacuous working 
kinds, as also shown in our Examples. 
Their seed product will be the initiative 
degree, and representative likeness of the 
generation of the four succeeding kingdoms 
of nature and all their kinds of beings. 

It may also be seen that the seventh posi- 
tive and negative constituent, and last ances- 
tral seed kind of their own vacuous Being, 
as shown by the seventh positive and nega- 
tive digits, in our numeral Examples 1 and 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. I^J 55 

2, was not a working or generating kind of 
Being, as it was the boundless, self-existent, 
ancestral seed Being, in which the others 
consist; boundless Space, in that ancestral 
seed capacity, was and is the great resting 
Sabbath of all things and all ages, of which 
the Jewish seventh day sabbath was a true 
figure; for boundless Space will always be 
the only self-existent, infiinite, constituent 
and ancestral Seed Being, in and of which 
all things and beings — whether visible or 
invisible, whether principalities or powers, 
things present or things to come, must all 
originate, generate and consist. 

So we will cut it and its seed product out 
from our generating, working, numeral seed 
kinds, for the present ,in order to show its 
resting position, as shown also in our ex- 
amples. For the boundless, generating Seed 
Law so arranges its seed acts, that it will 
always keep it inviolable in itself as the 
resting sabbath of all things ; and also count 
it in with its working, constituent and ances- 
tral, seed kinds of Being, perpetually and 
interchangeably, throughout all creation. 



56 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

. It may be seen by the detail construction 
of ther.^e vacuous seed kinds of Being, that 
boundless Space always becomes the 
fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh successive 
constituent kind of Being, and that as the 
seventh and last constituent kind of its own 
corporate Being, it becomes the first work- 
ing ancestral seed kind of all succeeding 
kinds of beings, which makes it an eighth 
constituent kind ; but the eighth ceases to be 
a constituent and becomes the first working, 
ancestral kind of all succeeding kinds of 
beings, perpetually and interchangeably. 
See the figure of this in Revelation XVII-11. 
They next multiply their 30 single, work- 
ing and resting, constituent and ancestral, 
seed kinds in our Example No. 4, by their 12 
legally constituted, constituent and ancestral 
see kinds, in our Example No. 3, the pro- 
duct of which makes their 360 boundless 
positives, as shown under the 36, in Example 
No. 4. 

They multiply their 36 single, constituent 
and anceotral kinds, in Example No. 4, by 
their 10 legally constituted, constituent and 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 57 

ancestral seed kinds, in Example No. 3, the 
legal product of which makes their 360 single 
boundless negatives, as shown under the 360 
positives in Example No. 5. 

They being united in lineal, correlated, 
precedent, and successive, constituent and 
ancestral, generating seed order, they made 
the 360 double positive and negative work- 
ing and resting, constituent and ancestral 
iseed degrees of these first six boundless, 
coUjStituent and ancestral seed kinds of being 
which it required to reciprocally constitute 
them, as shown by the 360 positive and nega- 
tive seed kinds, under the tw^o 360 's in Ex- 
ample No. 6. 

The two fourth positive and negative seed 
kinds in our Examples Nos. 1 and 2, being 
the seed kinds in which the first three ex- 
isted, in each case, they were not generating, 
constituent seed kinds^ so we also cut them 
out from the working seed kinds, as indicated 
in our examples, but they will be counted 
in as non-workers because all things in nature 
must have their portioD^of space in w^hich to 
exist and work. 



58 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

They perpetually generate and work in the 
seventh and Sabbath also, as figuratively 
stated in John V. 17. So they all count pro- 
portionately as working and resting seed 
kinds in all their perpetual, generating and 
multiplying seed process, throughout crea- 
tion. 

They next multiply their 24 single work- 
ing constituent and ancestral seed kinds, in 
Example No. 4, by their 12 legally con- 
stituted seed kinds in Example No. 3. The 
lineal seed product make their 288 single, 
boundless, positive, working, constituent and 
ancestral degrees of seed kind, as shown 
under the 24 in Example No. 5. 

They next multiply their 36 single, work- 
ing, constituent and ancestral degrees, in 
Example No. 4, by their 8 legally constituted 
seed kinds, in Example No. 3. The legal seed 
product makes their 288 single, boundless, 
negative, working degrees, as shown in our 
Example No. 5, under the 288 posi- 
tives. These when united in correlated, posi- 
tive and negative, precedent and successive, 
constituent and ancestral, generating seed

form, as they always existed in boundless 
space jthey make the 288 boundless positive 
and negative, constituent and ancestral, 
generating seed degrees of their own kinds 
of being, which it takes to reciprocally con- 
stitute the first six constituent and ancestral 
seed kinds of being, in generating, govern- 
ing and sustaining order, in accordance with 
the boundless constituent and ancestral seed 
law of nature, as shown by the 288 under 
their single positives and negatives, in Exam- 
ple No. 6. 

They next multiply their 18 single con- 
stituent working seed kinds, in Example 
No. 4, by their 8 legally constituted seed 
kinds, in Example No. 3, the seed product 
makes their 144 single positive, working, 
constituent seed kinds, as show^n in our Ex- 
ample No. 5, under the 18 in Example No. 4. 

They next multiply their 24 single, con- 
stituent seed kinds, in Example No. 4, by 
their 6 legally constituted, working, con- 
stituent seed kinds in Example No. 3, the 
seed product of which makes their 144 single 
negatives, as shown under the 144 positives 



60 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

in Example No. 5. Tliey being united in 
their lineal correlated, positive and nega- 
tive generating order, they make the 144 
boundless double positive and negative con- 
stituent, generating degrees of their own 
kinds, which it required to legally con- 
stitute the first three single constituent seed 
kinds of being, so that they could legally 
constitute boundless space in amalgamated 
round and square, flat numbers, as shown by 
the 144 under their po::4tives and negatives 
in our extended Example No. 6. 

They next multiply their 12 single con- 
stituents in our Example No. 4, with their 
six corporate constituents in Example No. 
3, the legal product of w^hich makes their 
72 single positive working constituents, as 
also shown in our Example No. 5, under the 
12 in Example No. 4. 

They next multiply their 18 single con- 
stituents in Example No. 4, by their 4 legally 
constituted, corporate constituents in Exam- 
ple No. 3, the legal seed product of which 
makes their 72 single negative constituents, 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. Gl 

as shown under the 72 positives in Example 
No. 5. 

These being united together, in lineal, cor- 
related, positive and negative, generating 
seed order, they make their 72 single lineal, 
correlated, positive and negative, constituent 
degrees, which it required to legally con- 
stitute the first three single constituent kinds, 
as shown by the 72 under the two 72 's in 
Example No. 6. 

They next multiply their six single con- 
stituents, in Example No. 4, by their 4 cor- 
porate constituents, in Example No. 3, the 
legal seed product of which make their 24 
corporate constituents, as shown by the 24 
positivcGi in the left hand side of our ex- 
tended Example No. 5, under the 6 in Exam- 
ple No. 4. 

They next multiply their 12 single con- 
stituents in Example No. 4, by their two 
corporate constituents, in Example No. 3, 
the legal seed product of which makes their 
24 negative corporate constituents. When 
their 24 positive corporates, and their 24 
negative corporates were united in their

positive and negative constituent seed order, 
they made the 24 positive and negative cor- 
porate constituent seed kinds of being, which 
is required to reciprocally constitute those 
first three single constituent kinds in amal- 
Then the boundless constituent and ances- 
tral Seed Law spoke again, by ts boundless 
nature, and positively affirmed that those 
360 degrees of their seed kinds only legally 
constituted those first 6 constituent and an- 
cestral kinds in single, flat numbers and 
bodily form, that they must be legally con- 
stituted in solid globular and cubic, round 
and square numbers and bodily form also. 
There being just 6 of them, and they each 
having just 5 aggregate positive and nega- 
tive generating degrees or stages, as shown 
by the 5 generating working digits, in our 
Example Nos. 1 and 2, they make 10 single 
generating stages. In their furtlher con-i 
struction, it follows that they next multiply 
their 144, 288, and 360 degrees, and their 
ceed product, 6 successive times by 10, the 
legal seed product of which makes 144,000,- 
000, 288,000,000 and 360,000,000 of bound- 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 68 

less working and resting constituent and 
ancestral degrees of their own seed kinds of 
being, respectively, which it required to 
legally constitute boundless Space, in solid 
globular and cubic cross and round numbers, 
in accordance with the boundless con- 
tituent and ancestral seed law of nature, as 
shown in our Example No. 6. 

As our first flat diagrams only represent 
their structure in flat form, we also scientifi- 
cally represent them in solid globular and 
cubic form by a square cube, shown by our 
square diagram attached to this book. A 
square cube of any size, when divided into 
6 equal parts, and opened up each part pre- 
sents 4 lineal triangled seed crosses of the 
first 3 lineal kinds of being, which are re- 
quired to legally constitute them, in single 
amalgamated round and square corporate 
numbers and bodily form, they evidently 
multiply their six equal parts by their four 
triangled lineal seed crosses, which make 
their twenty-four single corporate con- 
stituent seed kinds of being, as shown by 
the 24 in the left hand side of our Example 



64 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

No. 6, so each of their six parts evidently 
had twelve of those first three lineal seed 
kinds, which multiplied their six parts by 
their twelve single lines, which made 
their 72 single, original, positive and nega- 
tive seed kinds of being, which it required to 
legally constitute the 24 corporate kinds in 
single round and square numbers, so they 
were evidently the 72 original seed kinds 
of being of which all the other 360,000,000 
are the differently compounded degrees or 
off-spring. 

Thus we learn that there are just 72 lineal 
correlated, constituent kinds of substance, 
of which all things in the four kingdoms of 
nature are made, so our square diagram No. 
6, when closed, represents the living self- 
existent seed word, and when opened up, its 
six, equal, inseparable parts represent the 
cross of the crusifixion, which means death, 
so it represents all things in life and death. 
It, and our flat diagram No. 5, also show 
by their diverging, diametrical lines of seed 
kinds that any two ore more straight lines ex- 
tending from any central spot in space be- 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 05 

come farther apart as they extend outward, 
so when they are an immeasurable distance 
out, there is an immeasurable space between 
them in which their lineal seed kinds of be- 
ing can exist and generate boundlessly. 

Natural philosophy also teaches us that 
any located spot in boundless space is its 
geographical center, because it extends out- 
ward from any located spot in it boundless- 
ly, through all points of its globular com- 
pass. When those 360,000,000 of lineal seed 
kinds, have extended their lines outward an 
immeasurable distance, and so outlined their 
own immeasurable portion of space, in which 
they can be boundlessly, there are 360 mil- 
lion times 360,000,000 of inseparable, im- 
measurable portions of space beyond them, 
so they can continue to multiply their de- 
grecGi of seed kinds perpetually and space 
will continue to widen proportionately be- 
fore them. 

This gives us some idea of an infiinte cor- 
poration, and what it must be to fill the 
requisite constituent and ancestral seed capa- 



60 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

cities of the Creator of all things, for the 
Creator must not only be able to furnish 
the material of which all things are made, 
but must also contain, sustain, and govern 
all things after they are created. 

The boundless generating seed acts of the 
infiinite seed corporation, being perpetual, 
its degrees of seed kinds become innumera- 
ble. The numbers given in our Example No. 
6, being the exact numeral representation of 
all creation, we will not follow their multi- 
plying generating acts any farther, but will 
notice that because boundless space is all 
composed of each of those boundless con- 
stituent seed kinds of being, which are way, 
self-existence and durability, each of their 
lines of kinds were placed solidly side by 
side, so filling it with each of them. It may 
be seen from their positions in our diagrams, 
that the thread lines in the process of plac- 
ing themselves side by side, throughout 
boundless space, cross themselves so that 
they divide boundless space into infiinitesi- 
mal seed crosses ,and amalgamated their 
three lineal seed kinds inseparably together 



THE BOOK OK LIFE. 67 

in each and all of the seed crosses through- 
out boundless space. The crosses being in- 
finitesimally small, they naturally placed 
themselves so evenly and compactly to- 
gether that they formed those infiinitesi- 
mally fine and endless long thread lines ex- 
tending throughout boundless space in every 
infiinitesimal direction. 

The lines placed themselves so evenly to- 
gether that they formed themselves into mul- 
titudes of solidly compressed sheets, layers 
and stratumsof every degree of thickness that 
could be made from the infiinitesimal up to 
the boundless, extending throughout bound- 
less space, in every infiinitesimal direction, 
and so formed it into a solid, substantial, dark 
and densely cold body of vacuum, and there- 
by delineated it into every degree and size of 
parallel and complete ssuare and cube, in 
both solid and hollow form, every sized angle 
and curve, every sized circle and globe, both 
hollow and solid that could be made from 
the infinitismal up to the boundless, every 
size and shape, of compound that can 
be made of them, and also placed their com- 



68 THE BOOK OF LIFK 

pounds in every interchangeable position in 
which they can be placed. 

As all structural things and beings are 
formed of some of those sizes of parallels 
and right angles and different sizes of 
squares and cubes, solid and hollow, and 
different degrees of angles and curves, and 
different sizes of complete circles and globes, 
and different combinations and compound 
combinations formed of them, it follows that 
the degree, side, shape and form of every 
structural thing and being, including every 
book of every size, shape and language, that 
ever has been or can be printed, and every 
letter that has been or can be written, and 
every numeral example that can be worked 
out, and every law that ever has or can be 
made, including the boundless, constituent 
and ancestral magnetic seed law of life, was 
delineated in that boundless body of vacuum, 
in embryo or latent invisible seed form, be- 
fore any of them were generated, developed 
or brought forth in visible form in the four 
kingdoms of nature, as figuratively set forth 
in Proverbs VIII-22-30. 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 69 

Solomon, who represents wisdom, truly 
says in Ecclesiastes 1-9, that the thing that 
hath been is the thing that shall be, and that 
which is done is that which shall be done, 
and there is no new thing under the sun. 

As each and all of these different shapes 
and sizes of things and beings so delineated 
in boundless space were constituted of dif- 
ferent degrees of those first three positive 
and negative, vacuous kind of being, in dif- 
ferently compounded seed order, with that 
perpetual, interchangeable, constituent and 
ancestral, magnetic, seed law of life in them, 
it follows that when either of the three kinds 
way, self-existence or durability are referred 
to first it immediately converts and changes 
all the other degrees, shapes and sizes of 
things and beings into its own name and 
kind of being throughout boundless space 
perpetually and interchangeably. 

That positive and negative interchange- 
ably representative generating seed process 
contitutes its magnetic seed law of life, so 
it speaks by its infiinite nature and posi- 
tively affirms that it was the self-existent 



70 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

seed word which was in the beginning, in 
of and by which all things were made. It 
may properly be personified and called God 
and the father of all beings. It being infinite 
and self-existent there can be none else. 
Infinity can be no more nor less than bound- 
less space and all that can be in it at all 
times. 



CHAPTER III. 

THE GENERATION OF THE FIRST HALF OF 
ETERNITY. 

Eternity being a perpetual generating 
period of time, the present, or any future 
present time, is its centre. Its past will 
always equal its future, or time to come. 

The seed word being self-existent and dur- 
able, it could not refrain from performing 
its process of duration. Seconds, the first 
visible corporate periods of time, being prim- 
arily constituted of infinitesimal particles, 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 71 

the generation of the part of eternity which 
we want to illustrate was all primarily per- 
formed in the infinitesimal particles of space. 
The infinitesimals form themselves into 
seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months 
and years. The years numbered up into 
tens, hundreds, thousands and millions and 
so on as fast as generated, in the regular 
numeral order of the construction of time, 
until its years became innumerable and filled 
an immeasurable portion in boundless space, 
and until its particles of time could not press 
themselves any farther out from their gen- 
erating, magnetic, seed center, through the 
solid body of boundless vacuum. It was so 
solid that it could only be penetrated by the 
infinitesimal germ of the growth of dura- 
tion. Its generating process broke up the 
solid body of vacuum, in its immeasurable 
portion of space, and changed it into the 
immeasurable body of time, or first half of 
Eternity. 

It then had its own kind of immeasurable 
body, life being, and life power of con- 
tinuance in being, as the three immeasurable 



72 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

third parts, the whole of its corporate being 
in single round numbers, and its own im- 
measurable portion of space in which it 
could exist, was its fourth kind of being. 
The four kinds were the four quarters, the 
whole of its corporate being in single aggre- 
gate round and square numbers, in accord- 
ance with the boundless constituent seed law 
of nature. 

That globe of time in boundless space was 
the lineal, co-related, created, precedent, 
ancestral, seed being in which the four suc- 
ceeding kingdoms of nature and the plane- 
tary system originated, generated and con- 
sist. In those three seed capacities it was 
a fifth, sixth and seventh successive con- 
stituent seed kind of its own corporate being, 
and a first, second and third ancestral seed 
kind of all succeeding kinds of beings. It 
was aggregately and severally made in the 
image and formed after the likeness of the 
self-existent seed word, which was bound- 
less space. 

That immeasurable, broken-up globe in 
space is that in which the planetary system 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 73 

now exists, and in which the planets per- 
form their revolutionary orbits around the 
sun. Its solid arched boundary wall of 
boundless vacuum is also their indestructible 
foundation and boundary line, beyond which 
they cannot pass. See the figure of this in 
Proverb VIII-22-36. That accounts for the 
perpetual generating workings of the in- 
finite seed law of life throughout the first 
immeasurable half of Eternity. 



CHAPTER IV. 

THE GENERATIONS OF THE HEAVENS AND 
THE EARTH IN THE GREAT DAY IN 
V^^HICH THEY V^^ERE CREATED. 

As the boundless, durable, corporate Seed 
Word could not cease its process of during ; 
and, because its particles of duration could 
not press themselves any farther out through 
its solid, substantial body of vacuum, they 
had to proceed to generate ,and compoundly 



74 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

regenerate, in thier precedent particles of 
duration ,or time. 

The revolutionary motion of their genera- 
tion in themselves naturally and unavoida- 
bly generated elemental, ethereal friction. 
This, in course of time, naturally generated 
the element of heat, which in due time nat- 
urally generated ethereal flame. 

As all things in nature are magnetic, and 
affinitive, they have attraction for their own 
nearest, correlated kinds of being, and cor- 
related, lineal repulsion for all other kinds, 
not so nearly related to them, the ethereal 
flame naturally attracted itself to its own 
magnetic center, around which it formed as 
fast as generated, until it formed the sun. 
In due time other gases of a heavier nature 
began to form from the elemental frction, 
and the heat of the sun; and they also nat- 
urally attracted themselves to their own 
magnetic centers, which in due time formed 
a globe of each kind of gas. The whole 
planetary system naturally developed out of 
these gaseous globes, in and through the past 
ages. 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 75 

The planets all being lineally correlated, 
and having correlated, lineal attraction and 
repulsion for each other, their attracting 
and repelling magnetic power keeps them in 
their respective, correlated positions in that 
boundless portion of developed time and 
space, and also causes them to revolve on 
their axes, and so orbiculate around the sun, 
as their great correlated center of attraction 
and repulsion. 

The friction of the planets, and their at- 
mospheres, in passing through space at their 
terrific rate of speed, continues to create 
ethereal heat and flame on their outside 
stratum of atmosphere, which heat continues 
to be attracted to the sun, by which it is 
sustained and developed. 

So says Natural Philosophy. What says 
the figurative language of the Bible on that 
subject? In Genesis i. 2, it is written that 
in the beginning darkness was upon the face 
of the deep. What is there figuratively called 
deep darkness, evidently was that boundless 
body of time and space which was the first 
half of Eternity. That revolutionary motion 



76 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

of the growth of duration, or time, evidently 
was what is figuratively called the movement 
of the Spirit of God on the face of the waters. 
That cold, dark body of time and space, 
being that of which water must develop, is 
called water and deep darkness also, in this 
parable or figure of creation, given in 
Genesis 1. 

The birth, origin, or first degree of the 
creation of the planetary system, including 
the sun, which is its light , evidently was the 
first great, periodic, or day's work of crea- 
tion, as figuratively stated in Genesis i. 1-5. 

Through the friction and heat, the gaseous 
globe of which this earth developed, became 
ignited, and formed a great gaseous globe 
of fire, of a heavier nature than the ethereal 
flame of which the sun is composed. The 
great heat of that burning gaseous globe pro- 
duced a heated gaseous atmosphere around 
it. Through its burning process the gases 
began to thicken and change into a heavier 
substantial form; so in course of time, a 
crust of earthy cement generated and 
formed around the outside of the gaseous 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 77 

globe. It changed and developed until it 
had partly cooled off on the surface; and 
when it cooled suft'iciently, that the atmos- 
phere around it had also become cold enough, 
it began to rain, and continued until the 
whole surface of the globe was covered with 
water. Through its farther cooling and 
thickening proceed, the earthy crust began 
to contract and crack, which formed great 
fissures in it, which let the water into the 
fiery gases inside the earthy crust. 

This generated volumes of steam, which 
caused great earthquakes and upheavals of 
the earthy and cement crusts, which formed 
the hills and rocky mountain ranges of the 
earth. These caused the waters to be divided 
and to recede into the valleys and ravines, 
and the dry land, the earthen hills and the 
rocky mountains appeared. Thus saith 
Natural Philosophy. What saith the figur- 
ative language of the Bible on this subject? 
Read it in Genesis i. 6, 10. 

The six lineal, correlated and inseparable, 
precedent and successive, positive and nega- 
tive, constituent and ancestral, generating 



78 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

and compound regenerating stages, or de- 
grees, of the generation of the four king- 
doms of nature, pertaining to this planet, 
are clearly, figuratively pointed out in the 
first chapter of Genesis, as six days, or gen- 
erating degrees and periods of time. In the 
eleventh and twelfth verses we get the first 
direct Bible statement as a precedent fact 
that each succeeding kingdom, and its con- 
stituent species, or degrees of kinds of being, 
originated in and developed out of the 
lineal, correlated and inseparable preceding 
kingdom; as we are there plainly told that 
the vegetable kingdom did originate in and 
develope out of the earth and water of the 
mineral kingdom. 

In the same chapter, (Verses 20 to 25) we 
are told that the earth and water brought 
forth the different species or degrees of the 
animal kingdom also ; and in the same verses 
it is said that God created them. This makes 
it evident that it was the perpetual, evolu- 
tionary, magnetic, generating Seed Law of 
Life in the earth and water that virtually 
said, by its own unavoidable, evolutionary, 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 79 

generating nature. Let them bring forth 
the different species of the animal kingdom, 
in male and female generating order, as 
figuratively stated in these verses. 

(Jesus, who is standard Bible authority, 
also tells us that the earth brings forth her 
fruit of herself.— Mark iv. 28.) 

These four kingdoms being inseparably 
correlated, and having that perpetual, gen- 
erating, magnetic, Seed Law of Life in them, 
they also constitute one aggregate, evolu- 
tionary, generating, constituent and ances- 
tral seed corporation. The aggregate posi- 
tive and negative, generating seed power of 
its two first seed kingdoms , aggregately 
develop into male and female, generating 
principles in the animal kingdom. 

Man being the last and highest seed kind 
of being which could generate out of it, and 
he being male and female, he was correla- 
tively made in its image, and formed after 
its likeness. So the magnetic Seed Law of 
Life, in the corporation of nature, evidently 
was the God that virtually said, by its nat- 
ural and unavoidable, perpetual, evolution- 



80 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

ary, generating nature and power, ''Let us 
make man in our own image and likeness/' 
and did so create them, as figuratively stated 
in Genesis i. 26, 27. 

All things in the four kingdoms of nature 
are also correlatively made in the image and 
likeness of the Seed Word ,as they each have 
their own kind and size of body, their own 
kind and amount of original self-existence or 
life being, and their own kind and amount of 
durability, or life power of continuance in 
being. As the three third parts — the whole 
— of their corporate kinds of being, in single 
round numbers, they each fill, and so consti- 
tute the body of a portion of Space, of their 
own size, and so change it into their own 
name and kind of being, which makes their 
fourth kind ; and these four kinds constitute 
the four quarters — the whole — of their ag- 
gregate, corporate kinds of being, in single, 
amalgamated, round and square numbers, in 
accordance with the boundless, constituent 
Seed Law of Nature. 

They all being male and female, the fe- 
males have the same three first constituent 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 81 

seed kinds of being, which, when added to 
the three male kinds, make the six con- 
stituent kinds, in each case, and they be- 
come ancestral seed kinds, and so generate 
and multiply themselves the same as those 
seed kinds in the construction of the Seed 
Word. So they are all made in its image 
and correlatively formed after its likeness, 
as stated in Genesisi i. 27. 

In 2, Corinthians xiii. 1, Paul tells us that 
in the mouth of two or three witnesses all 
similar truths can be established. 

As the things of nature and the workings 
of their evolutionary, generating process, are 
so numerous and various that their different 
features cannot be narrated in detail (see 
Ecclesiastes i. 8), we will cite a few similar 
cases as general examples, by which to show 
how all things generated and compoundly 
regenerated themselves up through them- 
selves, from these elements to man. 

The workings of the magnetic Seed Law 
of Life being more prominent and visible in 
the vegetable and animal kingdoms, than in 
the elemental and mineral kingdoms, we will 



82 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

cite our examples from the vegetable and 
animal kingdoms. 

First, we will notice, as we have discov- 
ered from the structure of the Seed Word, 
that there are just seventy-two lineal, cor- 
related, positive and negative seed kinds of 
substance, and that all things are made of 
them in differently compounded order. 

Scientists have previously discovered 
sixty-four of them, and the two unnoticed 
elemental kingdoms, of time and vacuum, 
which we now bring into notice, as real ele- 
mental substance, add eight new kinds of 
substance to the list. These seventy-two 
different kinds of substance primarily exist 
in lineal, correlated and inseparable, in- 
finitesimal molecules. Their interchange- 
able, lineal, correlationship may be seen and 
Understood from our round and square dia- 
gram, and the detailed description of the 
construction of boundless Space, or Seed 
Word, in Chapter 2 of this book. 

Each of the four kingdoms pertaining to 
this planet, are constituted of their own 
lineal, correlated parts of those seventy-two 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 83 

kinds of substance, in their own primary, 
molecular order, in which they each and all 
have lineal, correlated, magnetic, or affini- 
tive seed attraction for their own nearest 
correlated kinds of molecules, and lineal, 
correlated seed repulsion for all the others 
not so nearly correlated to them, through- 
out the aggregate, correlated line of mag- 
netic seed kinds. 

The atmosphere, or heaven kingdom, which 
surrounds the earth, or mineral kingdom, is 
composed of, and is also constantly generat- 
ing innumerable multitudes of its own lineal, 
correlated, magnetic seed kinds of invisible 
molecules in promiscuous form, in their mag- 
netic or affinitive strife to unite with their 
nearest correlated kinds of molecules, and 
to avoid uniting with those not so nearly 
correlated to them, they each both positively 
and negatively attract to and repel from each 
other, throughout the whole atmospheric, or 
heaven, kingdom. They form the atmosphere 
into living, double positive and negative, 
infinitesimal and invisible, working, attract- 
ing and repelling, magnetic lines, which ex- 



84 THE BOOK OF LIFE 

tend outward in every infinitesimal direc- 
tion, from any local spot in it, through all 
points of its globular compass. 

The infinitesimal magnetic lines are the 
means by which the rays of sound, light and 
heat are conveyed through the atmosphere. 
The elemental molecules are also constantly 
attracting themeselves together into lineal, 
correlated seed groups, in the atmosphere, 
or heaven kingdom. Two or more of them, 
as they affinitively self-compound them- 
selves, form the primitive seed out of which 
the first primogenial kinds of the vegetable 
and animal kingdoms develop. Those come 
to the earth in the rain, and there inter- 
mingle with the mineral kingdom. The heat 
of the sun, acting upon those seed groups, 
cause them to vegetate and animate in the 
earth and water, and so bring forth vegetable 
and animal bodies and lives. Thus the first 
species of vegetable and animal bodies and 
life originate. The kinds of vegetable and 
animal beings so formed depend upon the 
number and correlationship of the molecules 
in the seed groups formed in the atmosphere. 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 85 

This manifests the philosophy of the state- 
ment made in Genesis ii. 4-6, where it is writ- 
ten that every plant and tree was made (in 
embryo, or seed form) before they were in 
the earth, or before they grew. 

Next we will notice a few normally devel- 
oped eases in the vegetable kingdom, for the 
purpose of manifesting the normal workings 
of the evolutionary, generating, magnetic 
Seed Law of Life in the vegetable kingdom, 
by which they originated and generate 
themselves of the elemental and mineral 
kingdoms. 

There may be apple trees, peach trees and 
plum trees growing in the same garden, 
watered by the same rain, surrounded by the 
same atmosphere^ lighted and warmed by 
the same sun, so that they are evidently all 
nourished or fed by the same substance from 
the elemental and mineral kingdoms, of 
which they eat or partake by their own mag- 
netic or affinitive, correlative, absorbent at- 
traction, for their correlated molecules, of 
which the elemental and mineral substances 
are composed. 



86 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

Each kind of tree cliemically changes the 
elemental and mineral molecular substance 
into its own vegetable kind of fluid sub- 
stance, or sap, which is composed of multi- 
tudes of each of their own differently cor- 
related, lineal kinds of molecules, in promis- 
cuous order, each molecule having lineal, 
correlated, magnetic or affinitive attraction 
for its nearest corelative kinds of molecules, 
and lineal, correlated repulsion for those not 
so nearly related to them. 

In their magnetic or affinitive strife to 
unite with their nearest correlated kinds of 
molecules, and to avoid uniting with those 
not so nearly correlated to them, they each 
and all correlatively attract to and repel 
from each other, throughout the tree. That 
attracting and repelling molecular energy 
constitutes the magnetic life of the tree, 
which causes the sap to circulate through it, 
and the tree to affinitively self-compound the 
sap into its own kind of wood, leaves, blos- 
soms, fruit and seed; so preparing the fruit 
for some of the animal kinds in the animal 
kingdom, and the seed for the propogation 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 87 

of its own kind of tree. The kind of fruit 
produced depends upon the kind of wood in 
the tree. 

It becomes evident that these three kinds 
of trees are magnetic, generating, and com- 
pound regenerating, seed kinds of their own 
being; they each having chemically changed 
and self-compounded the same elemental and 
mineral molecular substances and elemental 
and mineral kinds of magnetic life, into their 
own kinds of vegetable bodies and lives, cor- 
relatively creating the vegetable out of the 
elemental and mineral substances, by virtue 
of their own inherent, magnetic, evolution- 
ary, generating Seed Law of Life, without 
any conscious effort , either on the part of 
the trees, or of the magnetic Seed Law of 
Life ,which generated, governed and sus- 
tained them throughout the whole process. 

It is discoverable by proper investigation 
that the same is true of every plant and tree 
in the vegetable kingdom. To show how the 
different species of plants and treei corre- 
latively self-generated and compoundly re- 
generated themeselves, up through them- 



88 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

selves, from their primitive kinds ,as they 
originated in the water and earth, to the 
highest species in the vegetable kingdom, 
we will have to notice first that each pre- 
ceding kind grew to maturity with its crop 
of seed in it, died and disintegrated, going 
back into the earth in promiscuous, mole- 
cular form, in one or more years; their dis- 
integrated molecules still retaining their 
generating, magnetic oualities which were 
in the body of the plant, with the seed of 
the plant also, until the next season, when 
the heat of the sun caused the seed to ger- 
minate and produce a new plant. The new 
plant naturally partook of the same mag- 
netic, correlated molecules which came from 
the body of the preceding plant, together 
with the new earthly molecules which the 
new plant ate or absorbed. These it chemi- 
cally changed and compounded into its new 
vegetable body and life. 

The new plant then having both the com- 
pound kind of substance which was in the 
preceding plant, and the new earthly kind 
also, it was evidently a greater compound 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 89 

kind of plant than the lineal one from the 
seed of which it came. They continued their 
evolutionary, correlated, lineal, self-originat- 
ing, and compound regenerating process, 
through years and ages, until all of the wild 
trees and plants in the vegetable kingdom 
were correlatively self-originated, out of the 
elemental and mineral kingdoms. 

It is self-evident that the different kinds 
of domesticated plants and trees have been 
compoundly regenerated up through them- 
selves from the wild kinds, by man, by 
lineal, correlated pollenation, grafting and 
cultivation, by virtue of that same affinitive, 
evolutionary Seed Law of Life which created 
the wild ones. 

For the purpose of considering the normal 
workings of the magnetic Seed Law of Life 
in the animal kingdom, we will cite the cow, 
sheep and horse as our first three examples, 
as they live entirely upon the vegetable king- 
dom as their food. They may all live in the 
same field, eat the same grass, drink of the 
same water, and breathe the same air. They 
each digest, and so chemically change the 



90 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

grass and water into their own kinds of white 
fluid substance and blood. The blood they 
assimilate, or self-compound, into their own 
kind of body and life. 

Of the same fluid substance they each gen- 
erate offspring, without any conscious effort, 
or premeditated purpose, either on their 
part, or on the part of the magnetic Seed 
Law of Life which created and governed 
them. So they are each correlated, chemical 
generators, or creators, of their own animate 
kinds of being, which they form of the vege- 
table kingdom. 

We will also cite the serpent, the wolf and 
the lion, as they are carnivorous animals. 
They may all feed on the same kind of ani- 
mals; and they each digest, and so chemi- 
cally change the flesh and blood of the ani- 
mals eaten into their own kind of white fluid 
substance and blood. They each self-com- 
pound the blood into their own bodies and 
life. Of a part of the same fluid substance 
they generate offspring, so making them en- 
tirely of the flesh and blood of the animals 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 91 

eaten by them. So they are evidently each 
correlated generators of their own kinds of 
being, formed of their own correlated animal 
kinds. 

Now we will proceed to consider how^ the 
different kinds of animals correlatively self- 
originated and compoundly regenerated 
themselves, up through themselves, from the 
several primitive kinds which originated in 
the water and earth. Some of them being of 
a little higher or greater organic kind of 
being than the others, they ate several of 
the lower kinds as their food, which they 
swallowed whole and alive, as serpents and 
other kinds of animals do. They digested 
and chemically changed the bodies and life 
blood of the several low^er kinds into their 
own kind of body and life. Of the same 
salivous substance they also generated off- 
spring. The offspring were evidently greater 
or higher kinds of being than their indi- 
vidual ancestors, because they had their 
organic kind of being hereditarily in them, 
and also the several correlated lower kinds 
which their ancestors had eaten, and of 



92 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

which the compound was constituted, of 
which the offspring was made. 

The offspring also; after being normally 
developed, each ate of several lower kinds 
of animals, or vegetables, according to their 
own species. Those they digested and chemi- 
cally changed into their own kind of fluid 
compound and blood, of which they sus- 
tained and developed themselves, and gen- 
erated offspring. So their offspring were 
evidently greater compound kinds of being 
than their ancestors, for the same reasons 
stated in the preceding case. So they con- 
tinued their precedent and successive self- 
originating and compound regenerating pro- 
cess until all of the lineal, correlated species 
in the animal kingdom were produced, from 
the elements up to man. 

In accordance with the evolutionary, gen- 
erating Seed Law of Life, the last and 
highest individual kind of being in the 
animate kingdom was the first and lowest 
being in the human species. Man being the 
highest organic species which could develop 
out of the Theocratic kingdom of nature, it 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 93 

follows that with him the original work of 
creating kinds ceased or rested, and the 
work of regenerating, domesticating and 
civilizing the vegetable and animal king- 
doms proceeded, as figuratively set forth in 
Genesis ii. 

It is clearly self-evident that all kinds of 
domesticated plants, trees, animals and 
civilized human beings have been com- 
poundly regenerated up through themselves, 
from the original or wild kinds, as they first 
came from the hands of the corporation of 
nature, by man as their first conscious re- 
generator, by correlative, lineal composition; 
by poUenating, grafting and cultivating in 
the vegetable kingdom; and by successive 
breeding from the fittest, and educative 
culture, in the animate kingdom, including 
the culture and civilization of the human 
race themselves, the higher classes of whom 
are still regenerating the low^er ones, by 
education and governmental civilization, by 
virtue of the same affinitive Seed Law of 
Life, by v\^hich they w^ere unconsciously 
created. 



94 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

After the correlated, evolutionary chain 
of creation had been completed, from the 
elements up to man, many of the connecting- 
species of wild animals, and human kinds 
also, have been, and vrill be still further 
destroyed and dispensed with; and the 
domesticated animals, and civilized human 
beings, will continue to self-originate, and 
compoundly regenerate themselves, out of 
the elements figuratively called, in the Bible, 
^^the dust of the ground,'' through the 
domesticated shortline chain of creation, 
which is compoundly established in the vege- 
table and animal kingdoms. 

For the purpose of pointing out the gen- 
erating process of the correlated, evolution- 
ary formation of man, of the dust of the 
ground, through that dom;esticated short- 
line chain of creation, we will cite anyone 
or all families of the civilized human race, 
as they all subsist upon the suitable parts of 
the vegetable and animal kingdoms as their 
food, and all breathe the same air as their 
breath of life. 

The human ancestors all eat, digest, and 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 95 

chemically change the vegetable and animal 
food into the human kind of salivous sub- 
stance and blood. They assimilate, or self- 
compound, the blood into their own kind of 
body. Of part of the same fluid compound 
they generate children. So it is evident that 
the bodies and life of the children are made 
of the fluid substance which was made of 
the vegetable and animal food, water and 
air, eaten and inhaled by the parents. The 
domesticated animal part of the parents' 
food being made of vegetable substance, it 
follows that the parents' food all came 
through the vegetable kingdom, which was 
made of the watery and earthly molecular 
substance of the mineral kingdom, which, 
in the Bible, is called ^^the dust of the 
ground." So the children are evidently 
being thus made or formed of the dust of 
the ground, in these three aggregate, sub- 
stantial, evolutionary, chemical changes, or 
degrees of development. 

The children are born into this atmos- 
phereie, or heaven kingdom, Avhich sur- 
rounds the earth, without the breath of life. 



96 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

The molecular substance of which the 
children's bodies are composed being lineal- 
ly correlated with the molecular atmosphere, 
and their lungs being also cavetous, and 
warmer than the air, they naturally and 
affinitively attract the air into them until 
they are filled with it. The blood in the 
heart also affinitively attracts the oxygen 
and hydrogen out of the breath into its cor- 
related molecules. The refuse breath then 
having lost part of its properties, somewhat 
changes its relationship with the lungs, so 
causing them to repel the air out of them 
until empty. Then the lungs im^mediately 
attract new air into them. The repetition 
of that process constitutes magnetic respira- 
tion, and the children become living beings, 
called ^ living souls," in the figurative 
language of the Bible. — Genesis ii. 7. (Ac- 
cording to this teaching, it takes the united 
body and life to constitute a living being, 
or living soul.) And it is evident that the 
generating, magnetic Law of Life is still 
forming man of the dust of the ground, and 
breathing into their nostrils the breath of 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 97 

life, and they are becoming living souls, or 
living beings, through the domesticated, 
short-line chain of creation, by the same 
evolutionary, magnetic Law of Life by which 
the first ones of the human race were made, 
through the long evolutionary chain of crea- 
tion, figuratively described in Genesis i. 

As man in his organic structure is the 
personificational image and likeness of the 
whole corporation of nature, we will now 
cite the self-working and impelling power 
of the magnetic Seed Law of Life in them, 
as a figure by which to more plainly repre- 
sent its self-workings, and generating and 
governing power in the whole Theocratic 
corporation of nature. 

The human race are told, or impelled, to 
eat of the suitable parts of the vegetable 
and animal kngdoms, by their own appe- 
tites. Their stomachs digest the food and 
chemically change it into the human kind 
of fluid substance, by their own chemical 
gastric powder. They are told, or impelled, 
to generate their own kind, by the amorous- 
ness of their own magnetic, generating 



98 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

nature. The same cliemical gastric power 
which digests their food, also changes the 
white fluid substance into blood, which, as 
it first originates in the human body, is 
composed of multitudes of those seventy- 
two differently correlated, lineal seed kinds 
of magnetic molecules, in promiscuous form. 
Each of the correlated, lineal kinds of mole- 
cules having corelated, lineal attraction for 
their own and next nearesit correlated kinds 
of molecules, and lineal, correlated repulsion 
for all the others not so nearly correlated to 
them, they proceed to attract themselves to- 
gether into lineal, correlated seed groups, or 
blood corpuscles. 

Their molecular correlationship, in the 
blood, in their promiscuous form, is so 
various that, in their magnetic strivings to 
unite with their own and next nearest cor- 
related, lineal seed kinds of molecules, and 
to avoid uniting with those not so nearly 
related to them, the molecules each and all 
both correlatively attract to and repel from 
each other, throughout the human body. 

That positive and negative, molecular, 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 99 

attracting and repelling energy constitutes 
the magnetic life of the body, and also 
causes the blood to circulate through it. In 
Deuteronomy xii. 23, we are told that the 
blood is the life of the fiesh. So Natural 
Philosophy and the figurative language of 
the Bible both tell us that there was no vege- 
table or animal life till there were vegetable 
and animal bodies; and that because their 
bodies and life originate simultaneously, they 
cannot exist separately. 

It is self-evident that the life of the body 
is in the blood ; for when the blood is taken 
out of the body they disintegrate and return 
into the correlated elements from which they 
came, in promiscuous molecular form: and 
the human magnetic life power, which was 
in the blood, ei^dently also reverts back into 
and again becomes elemental and mineral 
magnetic life in the substances of the ele- 
mental and mineral kingdoms. 

The different organs of the human body 
being composed of part of these correlated, 
lineal seed kinds of magnetic molecules, in 
differently compounded order, each organ 

LofC. 



100 THE BOOK OF LIFE 

affinitively attracts its own lineal, corre- 
lated seed kinds of molecules out of the 
blood, as it circulates through them, and 
affinitively self-compounds them into its 
own tissue, and rejects and repels those not 
so nearly related to it, and they pass on- 
ward in the blood, through the other dif- 
ferently correlated organs of the body, so 
allowing them to get their own correlated 
kinds of molecules out of it. So the differ- 
ently correlated organs of the body are sup- 
plied and formed of their own lineal, con- 
stituent and ancestral, magnetic seed kinds 
of molecules, out of the aggregate blood, 
by virtue of their own inherent, magnetic 
Seed Law of Life. 

It becomes evident that the evolutionary^ 
generating ,magnetic Seed Law of Life^ 
reciprocally and correlatively generated and 
compoundly regenerated all things and be- 
ings up through themeselves, and of them- 
selves, from that infinite, self-existent, 
vacuous Seed Word to man, and developed 
man up to the degree of their creation in 
which they had a normlly developed brain 



I 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 101 

and nervous system, without any conscious, 
premeditated purpose, and without any 
created being knowing how, or by what 
power, they were created, governed and sus- 
tained ,as figuratively stated in Isaiah xlv. 
5 and Acts xvii. 30. 

Natural Philosophy and the figurative 
Language of the Bible both tell us that there 
was no thinking or reasoning mental power 
in the Theocratic Corporation of Nature 
until there were brain organisms in created 
animate beings, and that the amount and 
kind of intellect in the beast, or other being, 
depends upon the substantial quality and 
structure of the brain and being in and 
through which the magnetic life is working. 
Man being the last and highest kind of being 
w^hich could develop out of the seed cor- 
poration, of nature, it follows that with him 
the evolutionary process of generating kinds 
ceased or rested. 

The writer in the first chapter of Genesis 
first points out six great evolutionary periods 
of time which he figuratively sets forth as 
six davs of creation. 



102 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

In Genesis ii. 1, 2, lie says: ''Thus the 
heavens and the earth were finished, and all 
the host of them. And on the seventh day 
God ended his work which he had made; 
and he rested from all the work which he 
had created and made.'' 

In Genesis ii. 4, the writer says, ''These 
are the generations of the heavens and the 
earth, when they were created, in the day 
that the Lord God made them." In this he 
sums it all up as one great day, and aggre- 
gate, evolutionary seed work, or chain of 
creation. 

Natural Philosophy tells us that because 
our common day is a completely constructed, 
primary unit of measured time, it constitutes 
a complete figure by which all greater cor- 
related periods of time may be scientifically, 
figuratively and correlatively represented, 
each in its own respective order ; and because 
this great period of time was a great creative 
day, its primary representative unit of time 
was a lesser creative season or day, as also 
figuratively set forth in Genesis i. 14 and 2. 
Peter iii. 8. 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 103 

As in accordance with the Jewish 
measurement of time, it takes 360 of our 
common days, or primary units of time, to 
constitute one of our common years, or 
shortest primary creative units of time ; and 
as all complete periods of time are con- 
stituted of 360 of their next lower corre- 
lated, primary seed kinds of time, as their 
360 primary degrees, it follows that 360 
years was the legally constituted, correlated, 
primary unit of the great season, or day, 
of creation, as figuratively shown in the 
right hand side of our numeral Example No. 
5, in Chapter II of this book, with its sab- 
baths and resting days, added; and 288 was 
the complete number of working years in 
its primary unit of time. 

Although there are seven lineal, corre- 
lated stages or degrees of time in the legal 
construction of the two primary units, days 
and years, which are seconds, minutes 
hours, days, weeks, months and years, yet 
it may be seen that the fourth and seventh 
degrees, w^hich are days and years, being the 
complete units, are not growing or generat- 



104 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

ing seed kinds in their own structure, so 
that there are just the five generating and 
multiplying seed kinds of time in them. They 
being both positive and negative, or male 
and female, seed kinds of time, they make 
ten single, working or generating degrees, 
as represented in our numeral Examples 1 
and 2, and explained in Chapter II of this 
book. 

And there being just six great days, or 
periods of time in the one great day of 
creation, it follow^s that by multiplying the 
288 and 360 years, as their correlated units 
of time, and their seed product six times by 
ten, we get the correct number of our com- 
mon years which it took the evolutionary, 
magnetic Seed Law of Life to generate, and 
compoundly regenerate, all things, up 
through themeselves, from the end of the 
first half of eternity, as described in Chapter 
III of this book, to man, as represented by 
the great day of creation, which was Two 
Hundred and Eighty-Eight Millions of work- 
ing years, which, with their sabbaths or rest- 
ing times added, made Three Hundred and 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 105 

Sixty ]\rillioiis of generating and developing 
years in that great day of creation, as 
shown in our numeral Example Xo. 6, by 
the 288—360,000,000, and figuratively ex- 
plained in and by the construction of the 
infinite Seed Word. 



CHAPTER V. 

THE GENERATION OP THE MIND BEING, OR 
INNER MAN, IN THE HUMAN BODY. 

Alhough all the wild species in the vege- 
table and animal kingdoms, including man, 
were created in male and female generating 
seed order, in the first six great days of 
creation, as figuratively set forth in Genesis 
i., and as shown in Chapter IV of this book, 
yet, at that time, there was not a man with 
intelligence enough to till the ground, as 
stated in Genesis ii. 5. So it follows that 
the creation figuratively set forth in Genesis 



106 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

ii. was the creation of the conscious Mind 
Being, or inner man, in the human race. 

Natural Philosophy tells us that the gen- 
eration of the trees and plants of the garden 
therein mentioned, figuratively represent 
the development of the different branches 
of the brain organism in the first species of 
the human race. And after their brain vras 
normally developed, it was so void of knowl- 
edge that they did not even know that they 
were naked, as figuratively stated in the 
part of the garden parable given in Genesis 
ii. 25 and iii. 11. 

It is evident that the knowledge of which 
their conscious mind being, or inner added 
man, must be constituted, was that of the 
different scientific branches of the good and 
evil workings of the magnetic Seed Law of 
Life in the kingdoms of nature, as figura- 
tively represented by the trees and plants 
of the garden, in Genesis ii. 5-17, their nor- 
mally developed brain being capable of gen- 
erating that knowledge from the visible, 
material things of nature, and assimilating 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 107 

and self-compounding it into their mind 
being, or inner man. 

That knowledge being the means by which 
they could perpetuate their own lives, their 
normally developed brain gave them a con- 
ditional birthright to everlasting life, as 
previously noticed in this work. The condi- 
tion was that they should use their brain 
as a legitimate male and female faculty in 
generating that knowledge from the things 
of nature. 

Natural Philosophy tells us that all the 
true knowledge men have, or ever can have, 
on the Theological subject, must be obtained 
in that way, and from that source. The 
peculiar nature of man's construction, sur- 
roundings, and the workings of the magnetic 
Seed Law of Life in them, spake, by its own 
nature, and positively affirmed, that they 
might, and necessarily must, eat, or learn, 
of all the different sciences in nature, which 
are also figuratively represented by the trees 
and plants of the garden, except the Theo- 
logical subject, figuratively called ''The tree 
of the knowledge of good and evil," w^hich 



108 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

ws in the midst, or center, of the garden, 
as figuratively stated in Genesis ii. 16, 17. 
But in the day that they began to eat, or 
learn, of it, they would surely die. 

This is naturally and unavoidably true, 
because the human brain has two distinct, 
fundamental faculties for obtaining or gen- 
erating knowledge. The first one is an in- 
stinctive faculty. It acts seemingly without 
any effort on man's part, by either of the 
five outer senses — seeing, hearing, smelling, 
tasting and feeling. But the second one is 
a reasoning faculty. It requires conscious 
effort and experience to effectually apply 
it. The brain organism, as a legitimate in- 
sinctive faculty, merely recognizes, and so 
brings the subject into notice, in bulk or 
aggregate form, as it first appears to either 
of the five outer senses, as the nature of the 
case may be. The same brain organism, if 
properly applied to the subject, as a legiti- 
mate reasoning faculty, analyses or reduces 
it to its proper constituent equations, and 
thereby discovers its organic structure, 
qualities, life and origin. The instinctive 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 109 

faculty being first ,the positive and nega- 
tive Seed Law of Nature tells us that it is 
the positive or male faculty or principle of 
mind generation, figuratively called the 
serpent in the garden parable in Genesis iii. 
1-13 ; and the reasoning faculty is evidently 
the negative or female principle of the 
human brain organism. As a generator of 
knowledge, it is figuratively represented by 
the woman in the same parable. 

These two faculties, if used jointly as a 
united, legitimate male and female — or in- 
stinctive and reasoning — faculty, in the pro- 
cess of generating or obtaining knowdedge 
from the things of nature, the knowledge so 
obtained, or inspired in the mind, is legiti- 
mate and true. But it is a fixed and un- 
changeable Seed Law of our nature, that 
the ideas of the Creator, and all other things, 
inspired in the minds of the human race, by 
the use of the brain as a single, instinctive 
faculty, are universally opposite to the 
philosophic truths generated or inspired in 
the same minds, from the same objects or 



lU) THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

subjects, by the same brain, as a combined 
instinctive and reasoning faculty. 

For the purpose of bringing the above 
stated facts into general notice, we will cite 
two or three different cases as examples. 
That being a universal law, all cases could 
not be cited in detail. 

First we will notice that the first astrono- 
mical idea generated or inspired in the minds 
of the human race through the use of their 
brain as an instinctive faculty, was that the 
earth was flat, and that the sun orbiculated 
around it. That was perhaps the universal 
idea entertained until about the time Colum- 
bus discovered America. That was the idea 
inspired and held in the minds of the Bible 
writers, as figuratively implied in Psalm xix. 
4-6 and Joshua x. 12, 13. Nevertheless it 
has been proven that just the opposite is 
true, though it appears so forcibly to our 
minds from first instinctive observations that 
the earth is flat, and that the sun orbiculates 
around it, that we would all believe it yet, 
if we had no positive proof to the contrary. 
Although that first instinctive astronomical 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. Ill 

idea was opposite to the truth, yet figurative- 
ly it is true ; as the sun does representatively 
rise from behind the earth in the east, and 
sets behind the earth in the west, thereby 
reflecting its light and heat around and over 
the earth. 

Next we will notice that the first instinc- 
tive idea of diseases which was inspired in 
the minds of the human race, was that they 
were evil supernatural persons, called devils, 
which they thought took possession of the 
bodies of the people, for the purpose of tor- 
menting and killing them, as punishment for 
some offense they had given their supposed, 
supernatural, personal God. That was also 
the idea inspired and entertained in the 
minds of the Bible w^riters, as figuratively 
implied in Mark i. 32-44; vi. 13; xvi. 9, and 
many other passages in the Bible. 

That also has been shown to be opposite 
to the truth. Nevertheless, it was figurative- 
ly true, as it has been demonstrated by the 
use of modern appliances, produced by the 
action of the human brain, as a legitimate 
reasoning faculty, that diseases are caused 



112 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

by living, contaminated molecules, which get 
into and occumulate in the bodies of the 
human race, producing sickness, pain and 
death, because the Theological laws of 
Nature have been somewhere violated. 

Next we will notice that the first ideas of 
the Theocratic kingdom of nature, inspired 
in the minds of the human race, from their 
instinctive observations of its workings, is 
that its aggregate, creating, governing and 
sustaining power is a supernatural Person, 
called God; that its good, constituent work- 
ing principles and laws are also supernatural 
persons, called God's angels; that its aggre- 
gate, evil, working powers constitute an evil 
supernatural person, called the devil, and 
that its constituent, evil, working powers 
and laws are also supernatural persons whc 
are called the devil's angels. Those were the 
ideas inspired and entertained in the minds 
of the Bible writers also, as figuratively 
implied in Revelations xii. 7, John i. 51, and 
many other passages in the Bible. But al- 
though these Personal Theological ideas are 
opposite to natural, philosophic truth, yet 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 113 

they are figuratively true, from the fact that 
persons are organic, working systems in 
themselves. They figuratively represent the 
corporation of nature and its constituent, 
corporate parts, with their working princi- 
ples and laws. 

Hoping that the three cases cited may be 
instrumental in bringing that universal law, 
which governs the action of our brain, in 
its process of obtaining knowledge, by its 
two inseparable faculties, into general 
notice, we will rest that part of our subject 
for the present. 

The prophets and writers of the Bible 
being ardent searchers for the truth concern- 
ing the workings of the invisible powders 
of nature, and their actual kinds of being, 
and they being prodigies in that line of 
thought they worked at it with all their 
instinctive powers, until exhausted. Then 
they passed into clairvoyant sleep, and their 
minds being so intent on that line of 
thought, in their visions they saw the things 
which would naturally develop out of the 
seed principles of the kingdoms of nature 



114 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

in due time. When they awoke, they in- 
variably thought that some invisible Person 
had been with them and told them the things 
which they heard and saw in their clair- 
voyant visions. This is clearly figuratively 
implied in Daniel x. 9-21 ; Acts x. 5-10 ; 
Revelations i. 10-19, and many other places 
in the Bible. As all things which are tangi- 
ble to either of our five outer senses exist 
in the form of persons, places or things, it 
follows that the human race become moulded 
in that manner of thought, so that they, in 
their instinctive cogitations on the invisible 
elements and working powers of nature, 
naturally conceive the idea that they also 
exist in the form of persons, places and 
things. 

As the age in which the Bible was written 
dates back to the beginning of the demise 
of the dark ages, its writers did not have 
the advantages of modern science and 
scientific appliances to assist them in their 
observations of the workings of the magnetic 
Seed Law of Life, in the kingdoms of nature; 
their investigations were unavoidably of the 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 115 

instinctive kind, and the Theological ideas 
generated or inspired in their minds were 
therefore of the .supernatural order. But 
there being no other way by which they 
could manifest their ideas, and the things 
which they heard and saw in their visions, 
than figuratively by the tangible things of 
nature and their workings, as written in the 
Bible, they therein set forth Natural Theo- 
logy and Natural Philosophy, instead of 
Supernatural Theology, as intended. This 
manifests the fact that there is no tangible 
basis or foundation upon which Supernatural 
Theology can be built, or by which it can 
be proven or manifested. 

Natural Philosophy as well as the Bible 
itself tells us that it was written by inspira- 
tion, and not by verbal dictation from a 
personal God, as inferred by supernatural 
theologians. As Bible proof of this, see Job 
xxxii. 8 and 2. Timothy iii. 16. 

For proof that the Bible is figurative in its 
science of correspondence, see the following 
passages : Numbers xxiii. 7 ; Job xxvii. 1 
and Psalm xlix. 44. AYe are also told in 



116 THE BOOK OF LIFE 

Matthew xiii. 34, that Jesus, who is the 
standard teacher from a Bible view-point, 
taught the people exclusively in parables 
and figures. 

As the things used as figures in the Bible 
were taken from Jerusalem, and its adja- 
cent, surrounding country, and their work- 
ings and customs, it follows that in order 
to get an understanding of its figurative 
language, we must have some knowledge 
of that country, its geographical structure, 
its rivers, lakes, animals, plants, trees, and 
people, their customs, manner of living, and 
their mode of correspondence at the time 
the Bible was written. Its figures are so 
numerous, and so various in their features, 
that we cannot narrate them in detail; we 
will merely notice some of them as occasion 
may require. 

Natural Philosophy tells us that the figure 
of the garden set forth in Genesis ii. was 
taken from that part of Egypt and Africa 
through which the River Nile flows — its 
climate being such that it could develop the 
vegetable and animal kingdoms from the 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 117 

elements up to man, and also shelter and 
feed mankind while in their first degrees 
of development, it constitutes the nursery, 
or garden of nature, figuratively called the 
Garden of Eden in the Bible. All things in 
that country were given to man by Nature, 
for their food and shelter, without any re- 
strictions whatever, as plainly stated in 
Genesis i. 28-30. The Garden of Eden, in 
one of its features, represents the growth 
and development of consciousness, or mind 
being, in the human race. In that feature 
of the figure, the human body is represented 
by the ground of the garden, and the dif- 
ferent organs of the brain and nervous sys- 
tem are represented by the natural plants 
and trees of the garden. 

That philosophic, figurative manner of 
teaching is general throughout the Bible, 
and Jesus clearly sets it forth in his parable 
of the sower, in Mark iv. 1-20. In verses 
15-20, he plainly states that the ground 
therein represents the people, and the seed 
represents the philosophic truths taught in 
the parable. 



118 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

In that garden figure, the whole corpora- 
tion of nature is first represented as one 
tree, and its aggregate good and evil work- 
ings are its fruit; so it is figuratively called 
''the tree of the knowledge of good and 
evil." AVhen the mind being in the human 
race gets that knowledge inspired, generated 
or written in it, it becomes, figuratively 
speaking, the tree of life, or everlasting life 
in them. It is written in the garden figure 
that the tree of life also, and the tree of the 
knowledge of good and evil, were in the 
midst of the garden, it was the central tree, 
because all the others w^ere its branches. 
— See Genesis ii. 9. 

Natural Philosophy tells us that when man 
began to eat, or partake, of the knowledge 
of good and evil, which began to open the 
eyes of their understanding, they were very 
much excited and elated over it; but when 
their excitement began to subside, which 
in the parable is represented by the cool of 
the evening, they discovered their naked 
and degraded condition. The next thought 
that would naturally be generated in their 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. Ill) 

minds was, ''What has happened, and where 
are we?" So they thinking that some in- 
visible person was telling them the things 
and thoughts that were generating in their 
brain, were naturally and unavoidably both 
ashamd and afraid, and so hid themselves 
among the treesi of the forest, in accordance 
with their wild custom of self -protection, 
^s figuratively stated in Genesis iii. 5-13. 
So they ceased making any farther investi- 
gation as to the supposed invisible person. 
That was the origin of the idea of a super- 
natural Personal God, and evidently it was 
an instinctive idea; and that omission to 
investigate, and so discover that invisible 
God Power — which omission was unavoid- 
able — became the commission of the original 
and perpetual sin of the w^orld of mankind, 
up to the present time. 

Natural Philosophy tells us that the 
woman mentioned in that part of the garden 
parable set forth in Genesis iii. 1-13, was 
the reasoning faculty, as the female princi- 
ple of the brain of the human race, when 
U5ied in obtaining or generating: knowledsre 



120 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

from the things of nature on the theological 
subject; and that the serpent represents the 
same brain organism, when operating as a 
single, instinctive faculty in generating or 
obtaining knowledge from the same things 
of nature, on the same theological subject. 
This gives a true figure, as the serpent and 
the brain, as an instinctive faculty, both 
swallow their food whole, or in bulk. The 
serpent has no stomach, or digestive organ, 
and the brain, as a single instinctive faculty, 
has no analyzing power. 

Here we would notice again that Adam 
means added man, which is the conscious 
mind being, or inner man, in the human race. 
Because the mind is the governor of the 
body, in the garden figure the whole man was 
called Adam. As the brain of the man was 
a first positive negative, male instinctive, 
mind generating faculty, it was also a legiti- 
mate, positive, negative, female reasoning 
faculty, in accordance with the double posi- 
tive and negative, constituent and ancestral, 
generating, Seed Law of Nature. The reason- 
ing faculty was the female principle, which 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 121 

was figuratively called the rib, which was 
taken out of the man, of which the woman 
was made. This is the Natural Philosophy 
of the case, as figuratively set forth in that 
feature of the garden parable given in 
Genesis ii. 20-25, That inner mind man 
called his wife's name Eve, because she, as 
the reasoning faculty, was the mother of all 
legitimate living minds on the theological 
subject. 

Here we would notice that, as stated in 
Genesis ii. 21, Adam, or that brain organism, 
went into a deep sleep while that reasoning 
faculty on the theological subject, was being 
taken out of it, and that the brain organism 
of the human race has not yet aw^akened 
out of the deep sleep on that subject, as 
figuratively implied in Romans iii. 11; xiii. 
11 and Ephesians v. 14. 

The Lord God there mentioned, and also 
in the third chapter of Genesis, represents 
the Seed Law of Life. And the conversa- 
tion said to have taken place between the 
Lord God, the Woman and the Serpent, 
represents the natural workings of the mag- 



122 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

netic Seed Law of Life, in its process of gen- 
erating or inspiring consciousness, or mind 
being, in the human race, in their brain, by 
those two inseparable, legitimate, positive 
and negative, or male and female, generat- 
ing mind faculties, and its results, as true 
cause and effect, in accordance with their 
organic structure, surroundings and circum- 
stances. 

While those primitive human beings lived 
in their wild state, in that wild garden of 
Egypt and Africa, where they were naked, 
and were furnished with all the wild fruit, 
and all the other things which that country 
produced, for their food and protection, they 
were practically free from the cares and 
troubles which overtook them when they 
left that primitive garden state, and began 
to get knowledge and become civilized. They 
then had to begin to think about clothing 
themselves; and they also had to begin to 
till the ground to produce their food. So 
they were virtually told by the boundless, 
magnetic, evolutionary, generating. Seed 
Law of Life, through their own circum- 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 123 

stances, that they were cursed more than all 
cattle, and every creeping thing upon the 
earth, because they had taken that forward 
step into civilization. Read the figurative 
account of it in the third chapter of Genesis 
and see if it is not perfectly applicable to 
the whole human race until the present time. 
Natural Philosophy tells us that the 
evolutionary, generating, magnetic, Seed 
Law of Life naturally developed mankind 
up out of that primitive, wild garden state, 
and so caused them to move forward in 
civilization and knowledge; and that it 
w^ould have continued their advancement in 
the knowledge of themselves and their mag- 
netic Seed Law of Life, their Creator, which 
would have been everlasting life in them, if 
they had continued to search for it in a 
reasoning way, as figuratively stated in that 
feature of the garden parable set forth in 
Genesis iii. 22-24, which reads as follow^s: 
''And the Lord God said. Behold, the man 
is become as one of us, to know good and 
evil; and now, lest he put forth his hand, 
and take also of the tree of life, and live 



124 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

forever; therefore the Lord God sent him 
forth from the Garden of Eden, to till the 
ground from whence he was taken. So he 
drove out the man ; and he placed at the east 
of the garden of Eden Cherubim, and a 
flaming sword which turned every way, to 
keep (or bar) the way of the tree of life." 

Natural Philosophy tells us that because 
the idea of a Personal God frightened man, 
and so prevented him from making farther 
investigations on the theological subject, 
that idea was the worshipful Cherubim and 
the flaming sword which were placed in the 
garden of Eden, or brain of the human race 
in the beginning, which have kept mankind 
from the tree of life and everlasting life 
through all their past history. The flaming 
sword shows that the personal Cherubim, 
or the reverential idea of a Personal God 
means death, as represented by that sword. 

There are two kinds of theology suggested 
to the minds of the human race, through 
their observation of the things of nature. 
These are Natural and Supernatural Theo- 
logy. The latter assumes a system of super- 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 125 

natural persons, places and things, constitut- 
ing a supernatural Theocratic kingdom, 
which is supposed to exist outside of, 
separate from, and above all things of 
nature. It sets up a consequent train of 
reverential, ceremonial and verbal forms of 
worshiping the supposed, supernatural, 
Personal Godhead of that Theocracy. It 
and its worshipful workings are opposite to 
both Natural Philosophy and the figurative 
language of the Bible. It is the seed pro- 
duct of the brain, when used as a single, 
aggregate, instinctive faculty, figuratively 
called the serpent in that part of the garden 
parable given in Genesis iii. 1-3. Its seed 
product constitutes the first Adam, or inner 
mind man, on the theological subject. 

Natural Theology sets up a natural Theo- 
cratic Corporation of natural persons, places 
and things, with a natural, creating, govern- 
ing and sustaining, generative Seed Law of 
Life in it, the foundation of which is that 
Infinite Seed Word introduced in the second 
chapter of this little book. It naturally sets 
up a consequent train of demands for the 



126 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

reverential and worshipful observance of, 
obedience to, and use of its fixed and un- 
changeable, working, generating, magnetic 
Seed Laws and magnetic powers. It is the 
basis — the solid foundation — of both Natural 
Philosophy and the figurative language of 
the Bible. The second Adam, or inner mind 
man on the theological subject, is constituted 
of the true knowledge of it and its workings, 
which knowledge is the seed product of the 
woman, or brain organism as a reasoning 
faculty. It is also the conscious Christ in. 
man, as figuratively stated in Colossians i. 
27. 

These two ^<eed kinds of mind being, on 
the theological subject, have always been 
opposite to, and at enmity with, each other. 
The first Adam, or inner mind man on the 
theological subject, which was the seed of 
the serpent, has always so far been the ag- 
gressor, and also the victor. So we are 
figuratively told in Genesis iii. 15, that the 
Lord God would put enmity between the 
serpent and the woman, and between the 
serpent's seed and the woman's seed; and 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 127 

that the seed of the woman should bruise 
the head of the serpent's seed product, and 
that the seed product of the serpent would 
bruise the heel of the seed product jf the 
woman. — See also Revelations xiii. This is 
the gospel in embryo, or latent seed form. 
We may learn from this that the seed pro- 
duct of the serpent, which is organized 
Supernatural Theology, will not always 
dominate over the seed of the woman, or 
reasoning faculty, which is Natural Theo- 
logy, as the bruising of the head means 
death, while, the bruising of the hull only 
hinders for a time. 

As it never rains in a portion of Egypt 
through which the River Nile flows, its over- 
flowing waters irrigate its tributary lands, 
and so furnish the life-giving and growing 
elements to the plants and trees of that part 
of the country. Its waters are used by Bible 
writers as a figure to represent the magnetic 
Seed Law of Life in its life-giving generat- 
ing, governing and sustaining process in the 
four kingdoms of nature. 



128 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

We are told in the garden parable that a 
river went out from Eden (or the seed be- 
ginning of creation), first as one stream (of 
magnetic life), and that it developed into 
four rivers. The one river represents the 
infinite Seed Law of Life, which issued out 
of the self-existent Seed Word, as the be- 
ginning of creation, which developed into 
the elemental, mineral, vegetable and animal 
kinds, or streams, of magnetic life, in the 
four kingdoms of nature, as shown in the 
introduction to this book, and as figurative- 
ly represented in Ezekiel xlvii. 1-12. 

The waters of the River Nile are also 
used by Bible writers to represent fhe good 
and evil wokings of the magnetic Seed Law 
of Life, as the life-giving, generating, gov- 
erning and sustaining power of the conscious 
mind being, or inner man, in the human 
race. — See Revelations xxii. 1, 2. 

The Theocratic kingdom of nature is also 
figuratively set forth as a book. In this 
feature, its evolutionary, generating seed 
laws and their workings are its own deline- 
ations of the book. 



THE BOOK OK LIFE. 129 

The human brain being capable of con- 
ceiving and retaining that aggregate knowl- 
edge — ^that knowledge, when so inspired in 
the mind being, or inner man — being the 
means of everlasting life in the human race — 
that mind is then figuratively called the 
Book of L-ife, as clearly implied in Revela- 
tions xxi. 27. The second Adam, or inner 
mind man, in another of its features is figur- 
atively called the City, New Jerusalem, as 
implied in Revelations xxi. In this figure, 
the organs of the human brain — being then 
the conscious dwelling-places of that knowl- 
edge. They are represented by the houses 
of the city. The magnetic avenues of the 
nerve system and the brain being that 
through which these truths are received and 
given out — are represented by the streets 
of the city. All this figure was taken from 
the ancient city of Jerusalem. 

The natural theological ideas which con- 
stitute the second Adam, or inner mind man, 
being based upon Natural Philosophy, are 
absolutely true and indestructible, and can 
be truly represented by gold; so the streets 



130 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

of that city are figuratively said to be of 
pure gold. — Rev. xxi. 21. 

These natural theological truths when 
given out to the world, from that higher 
order of mind, by the people who first get 
them, are figuratively set forth as ''a pure 
river of water of life," (or truth of life) 
flowing out of that city (or mind being) for 
the healing, or enlivening of the minds of the 
people of the nations, or the restoring of 
their lost birthright to everlasting life. — 
See Rev. xxii. 1-10. 

The first Adam, or inner mind man, on the 
theological subject, in the human race, is 
also, in one of its features, figuratively called 
a city, in the Bible. It is called Babylon 
(confusion) because its supernatural theolo- 
gical ideas are contradictory and confusing 
in themselves. The old city of Babylon was 
used by Bible writers to represent it. The 
destruction of the old city of Babylon repre- 
sents the destruction of the first Adam, or 
inner mind man, as the supposed true light 
of the world ,on the theological subject, as 
figuratively set forth in Revelations xviii. 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 131 

The generation of the second Adam in the 
human race is figuratively called the coming 
of the Son of man, in the Bible, as figurative- 
ly implied in Matthew xxiv. 23-27. It is 
called the Son of man because man must 
generate the knowledge of which it is com- 
posed, from the evolutionary, magnetic seed 
laws of life and their workings in the cor- 
poration of nature, and compound them into 
his own conscious mind being, by the use of 
his brain as a legitimate, instinctive and 
reasoning faculty. It is also figuratively 
called the coming of the kingdom of God 
(consciously in the human race, as. clearly 
stated in Luke xvii. 20-24. In this passage, 
Jesus clearly implies that the Christ will 
come as the constituent truth and light of 
the seconl Adam, or inner mind man in the 
human race, on the theological subject. — 
See also John i. 9. 

From this we also get the philosophy of 
the statement in Luke xii. 31, But rather 
seek ye first the kingdom of God and his 
(or its) righteousness (or right workings), 
and all other truths (on the theological 



132 THE BOOK OF LIFE 

subject) will be added unto you; also the 
philosophy of what is usually called the 
Lord's Prayer, in which he asks the people 
to pray for the kingdom of God to come, 
as figuratively set forth in Matthew vi. 9, 
10. So we learn that when working to 
practically manifest the Theocratic kingdom 
of Nature, and the evolutionary, generat- 
ing workings of the magnetic Seed Law of 
Life in it, to the minds of the human race, 
we are practically performing the work sug- 
gested by that prayer, without deception 
or guile, and by that work, we also sub- 
stantially and virtually utter the prayer. 

The aggregate Mind Being in the human 
race, is also, in one of its features, figura- 
tively called heaven, in the Bible. The 
honest strife between the two forms of mind 
in their different branches of generation or 
development in the human race, is figurative- 
ly called ^Svar in heaven." In that figure 
the first Adam, or form of mind, on the 
theological subject, is called the dragon, and 
its constituent ideas are called the dragon's 
angels. In the same figure the second form 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 133 

of mind is called Michael, and its con- 
stituent ideas are called Michaers angels. 
These two classes of ideas are said to fight, 
or strive for the ascendency, in their nat- 
ural growth in the minds of the human race. 
—See Rev. xii. 7, 8. 

Because the human brain is constituted 
of the two faculties — the instinctive and the 
reasoning — and the instinctive faculty being 
the first to become operative on all subjects, 
it follows that the magnetic, generating Seed 
Law of Life, in creating man, naturally and 
unavoidably brings all first into the instinc- 
tive form of mind, on the theological sub- 
ject; and while in it the people sincerely 
believe that those who through scientific 
investigation have developed up out of that 
first form of mind, on that subject, are im- 
postors and bad men, trying to deceive the 
people by their natural, theological ideas. 
That is why these religious people in the 
first, or supernatural, theological mind, are 
now and always have been at enmity with 
those of the second theological form of mind, 
as seen in Genesis iii. 15 and Galatians iv. 
29. 



134 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

It was because Moses, the Prophets and 
Jesus virtually taught Natural Theology, 
through their natural philosophic figures 
and parables, that the people then in the 
first religious form of mind persecuted and 
killed them. It is evident that they could 
find no criminal charges against them. Read 
the controversy between Jesus and these 
people in Luke xi. 42-45, and John vii. and 
viii. 

So it Avill not be surprising if those of that 
first form of mind bring their organic forces 
to bear, by warning the people against this 
work, at the present time also, as may be 
inferred from the statements of Jesus in 
John XV. 18-27 and xvi. 1-4. In John viii. 
44, he told those religious people of his day 
that they were of their father the devil, and 
that the lusts of their father they would do ; 
that he was a liar and a murderer from the 
beginning, and abodes not in the truth, be- 
cause there was no truth in him ; that when 
he spoke a lie, he spoke of his own (origin- 
ated it himself), for he was a liar, and the 
father of it. 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 135 

The philosophy of these figurative state- 
ments will be obvious if we remember that 
their theological ideas were naturally and 
unavoidably generated, or inspired in their 
minds, from the use of their brain as an 
aggregate, instinctive faculty. Such ideas 
are always opposite to the truth. And they 
caused the death of the birthright to ever- 
lasting life in the human race from the be- 
ginning ,as we have previously seen. 

Jesus also sets forth the generation of the 
second Adam, or inner mind man in the 
human race, on the theological subject, in 
one of its features in Matthew xxv. 1-12, as 
ten virgins who took their lamps and went 
forth to meet the bridegroom. Five of them 
were wise, and five were foolish. The foolish 
took their lamps, but took no oil in their 
vessels with their lamps. In this parable, 
the kingdom of heaven figuratively repre- 
sents the aggregate mind state in the human 
race, and the ten virgins represent the ten 
virgin senses of the two faculties of the 
human brain — the instinctive and the reason- 
ing. The five foolish virgins represent the 



136 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

five outer senses of the brain as an instinc- 
tive faculty ; and the five wise virgins repre- 
sent the five inner senses of the brain, as a 
reasoning faculty. 

The five inner senses are the wise virgins, 
because by their proper use as a true reason- 
ing faculty, the mind gets the true knowl- 
edge of the evolutionary workings of the 
magnetic Seed Law of Life in the kingdoms 
of nature, and so comes into union, or mar- 
riage, with the seed law, which is the Bride- 
groom, as figuratively set forth in the para- 
ble. 

As the mind gets all its light or knowl- 
edge through these ten senses ,they are 
represented by the lamps; and because the 
different organs of the brain contain those 
ten virgin senses, they are represented by 
the vessels also. Oil being the substance 
which when burning makes light, it repre- 
sents the substantial things of the kingdoms 
of nature, out of which the true light, or 
theological knowledge comes, when mentally 
analyzed, and this mental process is repre- 
sented by the burning of the oil in the lamps 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 137 

which the five wise virgins had with them. 

There being no substantial foundation for 
the instinctive theological ideas inspired in 
the mind by the five outer senses, or foolish 
virgins, their kind of theological light would 
not take them into conscious union with the 
evolutionary, generating, seed laws of life, 
which is represented by the Bridegroom. So 
their lamps went out, and their door or 
entrance to that marriage was closed to them 
forever, as it always had been, as clearly 
implied in that parable. 

These philosophic truths may become more 
apparent by reading the parable that fol- 
lows in the same chapter, commencing with 
verse 14, in which Jesus shows a dilferent 
feature of the same transaction. 

Oesus also shows a similar feature of the 
generating process of the conscious mind 
beiig in the human race, on the theological 
subject, in his parable in Matthew xxii. 1-14, 
in AV^ich a certain king makes a marriage 
for h^ Son. In this figure, the kiag repre- 
sents the evolutionary magnetic Seed Law 
of Lif\, in the Theocratic Corporation of 



138 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

Nature. The marriage of the Son represents 
the generation of the inner man in the human 
race of that knowledge, for when constituted 
of it, it brings the mind into union or mar- 
riage with the evolutionary, magnetic Seed 
Law of Life, called the *' Marriage of the 
Lamb," in Eevelation xix. 7-10. 

The mental organizations represented by 
the material, visible things, beings and in- 
stitutions, in the Bible, are of the same 
character as the material thing, beast of 
being used as the figure to represent them. 



CHAPTER VI. 

THE FIRST RESURRECTION, THE JirDG- 
MENT, AND THE IMMORTALIZATION OP 
THE HUMAN RACE. 

Life and death are the two great issues 
which pertain to the destiny of the Auman 
race. There is a first and second dea.h, and 
also a first and a second resurrecton, set 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 139 

forth in the Bible, as figuratively expressed 
in Eevelations xx. 6. In Hebrews ix. 27, it 
is written that ''It is appointed unto man 
once to die, and after this (first death) the 
judgment,'^ (and first resurrection.) 

It is stated in 1, Corinthians xv. 21, that 
' ' Since by man came death, by man came 
also the resurection of the dead." In verse 
53, we are told that this corruptible shall 
put on incorruption, and this mortal shall 
put on immortality." These and all other 
statements and promises figuratively made 
in the Bible, are practicable, true and relia- 
ble, because they are all based on the evolu- 
tionary, generating seed process of the mag- 
netic Seed Law of Life in the kingdoms of 
nature, as set forth in Galatians iii. 

The all-important question is. What is the 
practical way by which this mortal and cor- 
ruptible human race can put on incorrup- 
tion and immortality, by that magnetic Seed 
Law of Life? 

As the destruction of pain and death, 
caused by disease, appears to be the first 
practical step in that direction, we will first 



140 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

notice how that will be done, as follows: 
The tissue and circulating fluids of the 
human body, being composed of multitudes 
of the seventy-tw^o differently correlated 
seed kinds of magnetic molecules, which 
attract to and repel from each other, form 
double acting, positive and negative, mag- 
netic nerve lines through the body, by which 
the slightest touch on any part of it is imme- 
diately communicated to the brain, which 
being able to receive and retain conscious- 
ness, is the great central organ of intelli- 
gence and magnetic mental power of action 
over the body. 

All things in nature being primarily mole- 
cular, the seed of the different kinds of dis- 
ease exist in contaminated -molecules, which 
may originate in the human body, or in the 
air, water, earth or food, and from either of 
these get into the body, where they begin 
to generate by two or more of the same 
kind of diseased molecules uniting, and thus 
forming the seed beginning of their kind 
of disease. They then continue to generate 
their kind by contaminating the healthy 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 141 

molecules of the fluids and tissues of the 
body, until their kind of disease becomes 
normally developed, and the person is sick- 
ened by it. 

The growth of the disease causes pain in 
the part or parts of the body where the dis- 
ease is located, and that part^ of the nerve 
system immediately communicates its trou- 
ble to the brain. 

The brain, having previously received the 
true knowledge of the workings of the mag- 
netic Seed Law of Life, the person will then 
understand that the healthy, molecular, 
magnetic currents of the body can destroy 
its diseased molecules easily, if consciously 
and judiciously directed against them, be- 
fore they get the balance of power in the 
body; and the person or persons so notified 
by the symptoms of disease, will immediate- 
ly proceed to use their magnetic will powder 
to direct their healthy molecular magnetic 
currents into the parts of the body invaded 
by the dseased molecules, with the full de- 
termination to destroy and remove them from 
the system. 



142 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

The patient, having also become conscious 
that there is a constant creation of magnetic 
energy in the body, from the food we eat, 
which, if not used in performing labor, or 
by exercise, is always ^ passing out of the 
palms of the hands and fingers, in a pure 
state, it follows that if the patient's mental, 
magnetic power is not strong enough to repel 
the diseased molecules, he may lay his hands 
on, or rub them over, the affected parts, 
thereby sending the magnetic energy, pass- 
ing out of the hands, back into the body, 
where it will again unite with the healthy 
circulating fluids, so doubling their magnetic 
repelling power against the diseased mole- 
cules. 

This in all ordinary cases will be sufficient 
to destroy the disease in its incipiency; but 
if it has become normally developed before 
this remedy has become knoAvn to the 
patient, his own magnetic current may not 
be strong enough to destroy the disease. 
Then he may summon help from any one 
or more whom he may desire to assist him. 
If the help of only one is desired, that one 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 143 

may assist the patient either by Jaying his 
hands on, or rubbing them over, the affected 
parts of the body. The magnetic energy 
passing out of the hands will enter into and 
affinitively unite with the correlated mag- 
netic current in the patient 's body, by virtue 
of their attraction for their own kinds of 
molecules. The magnetic curents must be 
confidently directed against the disease by 
the united, conscious mental power of the 
patient and the assistant. 

If the disease has become so deeply seated 
and complicated that the magnetic currents 
of the patient and the one assistant are not 
sufficient to overcome it, the magnetic force 
may be increased by two, three or more join- 
ing hands, allowing their palms to come in 
contact. Two of the assistants will each 
lay one of their hands on, or gently rub 
them over, the affected parts of the patient 's 
body. They thus form a generating mag- 
netic circle, in which they unite their surplus 
magnetic force and will power, and their 
magnetic current passes into, unites with 
and circulates through the patient's body, 



144 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

acting as its own healthy, magnetic current 
and mind power against the disease, for the 
time being. That united mental and physi- 
cal magnetic treatment , applied from five 
to thirty minutes, once or oftener each day, 
for seven days in succession, should cure any 
ordinary disease, to which the human race 
is subject. 

To keep the circulating fluids of the body 
in normal condition, as a preventative for 
sudden attacks of paralysis, heart-failure, 
etc., lay the hands on the back of the neck, 
allowing them to remain there a few min- 
utes, at least, as often as practicable. When 
in bed is a convenient time for this, as well 
as all other self-magnetic treatment. 

For the purpose of purifying the blood, 
lay the hands over the heart. 

To cure or prevent dyspepsia, lay the hand 
over the stomach frequently. 

As a laxative, and also to cure diarrhoea 
moisten the hands with saliva from your own 
mouth, and either lay them on, or rub them 
over, the bowels. The saliva applied in the 
same way, is good in all other cases. 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 145 

Raw sores, burns, sprains, corns, warts, 
piles and cancers may be cured by the fre- 
quent and persistent application of the 
saliva from the patient's mouth, by rubbing 
it on with the hand, as above prescribed. 
See the figaire given of its great healing 
power, in John ix. 6^ 7. The digestive power 
of the saliva from the mouth is also its cura- 
tive power. 

Although there is a class of diseases and 
pains which will be removed in a few min- 
utes by the magnetic treatment, there are 
also constitutional and chronic diseases 
which will require more time and persever- 
ance and perhaps some medical treatment 
also to effectively eradicate them; for in 
such case the bodies of both the patient and 
the assistants may be so deranged and weak- 
ened by over-work, excesses in living, and 
the use of stimulants, opiates, narcotics and 
other drugs, that their magnetic treatment 
will not have the desired effect, until their 
systems recuperate to their normal condi- 
tion, by virtue of regular and proper eat- 
ing, sleeping, exercise, and temperance in 



146 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

all things, as figuratively expressed in Gala- 
tians V. 16-26. 

Excessive work, which many are now com- 
pelled to perform, is as great a violation of 
the laws of our being as any other excessive 
indulgence. This will be obviated when 
the multitudes of the different classes of 
people who are now non-producers, whom the 
present producers have to support, all be- 
come producers; also, as they will in the in- 
coming thousand year age, there will be no 
more work for each individual than will be 
required for healthful exercise. 

But the magnetic treatment may be relied 
upon from the beginning; for although the 
unconscious violations of the magnetic Seed 
Law of Life in ourselves and our surround- 
ings, may repeatedly cause disease to com- 
mence its generation in our bodies, giving 
more or less pain and trouble, still this treat- 
ment will arrest and destroy disease in its 
incipient stage, as figuratively set forth in 
I. John ii., 1-6, unless those violations or 
sins are willfully and persistently commit- 
ted against the laws of our being, and the 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 147 

application of the magnetic t^reatment is 
wilfully omitted or neglected. In such cases 
death, corruption, and promiscuous disinteg- 
ration are the final result, as figuratively 
stated in I. John v. 16-21. 

Disease cannot prove fatal to those who 
desire to live, and are willing to reverence 
and obey the magnetic seed laws of life, 
and use their magnetic, working, sustaining 
power, as we have mentioned, and as figur- 
atively set forth in Ezekiel xviii. and John 
viii. 51-52. 

When the correlated, magnetic molecules, 
of w^hich the human brain and nerve sys- 
tem are composed, get the true knowledge 
of the self-generating, governing and sus- 
taining power of the magnetic Seed Law of 
Life, which caused them to self-compound 
themselves into living, organic, human .be- 
ings, their own magnetic consciousness be- 
comes their mental, magnetic life power, by 
which they will maintain their organized 
being perpetually. 

That restores the human birthright to 
everlasting life, and is the substantiative of 



148 THE BOOK OF LIFE 

the first ressnrection in them. In Revela- 
tions XX. 6, John says, ^'Blessed and holy 
is he who has part in the first resurrection, 
over whom the second death has no power, 
But they shall be priests of God and of 
Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand 
years. ' ' 

During that millenium, which has already 
begun, their mortal and corruptible bodies 
will gradually put on incorruption and im- 
mortality, and so become immortal beings, 
figuratively called spiritual beings in the 
Bible, as shown in 1. Corinthians xv. 23-51. 
Then the saying and promise will be ful- 
filled, written in verse 54 of the same chap- 
ter, that death shall be swallowed up in vic- 
tory, and that the grave shall have no do- 
minion over us who have part in the first 
resurrection. 

Men must know and believe that the mag- 
netic Seed Law of Life is the living God 
power of nature, and must have faith in its 
healing and sustaining power, before they 
can have its full benefit, which is the first 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 149 

resurrection in them. As figuratively im- 
plied in Hebrews xi-6. 

Jesus, who was the great magnetic Heal- 
er of his time, plainly shows that the faith 
of the patient was the requisite in determin- 
ing the results of his work in that direc- 
tion.— See Matt, ix., 20-30 and xxi. 21. We 
are also told in Hebrews xi. 6 that, ^^ Without 
faith it is impossible to please God." So 
an adequate and faithful test of the magne- 
tic treatment, as we have prescribed, will 
startle and convince the most skeptical that 

Life is its own Creator, 

Its own Physician sure ; 
Magnetism its Balm of Gilead 

Its own supreme working Power. 

In Mark xvi. 17, 18, Jesus tells us that, 
'''These signs shall follow them that be- 
lieve ; in my name they shall cast out devils 
(or exterminate disease) ; they shall speak 
with new tongues," (or set forth new doc^ 
trines.) 

(Here we would notice again that the 
Bible writers supposed that diseases were 



150 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

supernatural persons, called devils, and that 
when exterminating diseases, they were cast- 
ing out devils.) 

Jesus goes on to say, ''They shall take up 
serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, 
it shall not hurt them. They shall lay hands 
on the sick, and they shall recover." 

In Matthew xviii. 19, 20, it is written that 
Jesus said, ''Aagain, I say unto you, that if 
two of you shall agree on earth as touch- 
ing one thing that they desire, it shall be 
done for them of my Father which is in 
heaven (or the invisible state). For where 
two or three are gathered together in my 
name, there am I in the midst of them," 
(or in them as their own conscious, mag- 
netic life power). 

These philosophic statements may be more 
readily understood when we know and bear 
in mind that the magnetic life power which 
did the work in and through Jesus, and 
which was the Christ and also the theologi- 
cal Father in him, is the magnetic life power, 
seed Christ, and theological Father of^the 
whole human race, of which Jesus was a 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 151 

member, or brother. These facts he clearly 
set forth figuratively in John xiv. 8-13 and 
xvii. See also Ephesians iv. 1-6. In John 
xiv. 12, Jesus tells us that the people who 
know him and the Father, and believe in 
them, would do even greater works than he 
did, by their magnetic life power, 
as by its proper and faithful observance 
and use men will now put on immortality 
and everlasting life. 

In John viii. 51, Jesus tells us that if a 
man keep his savings, he shall never see, or 
taste, of death. In xvii. 3, he also tells us 
trat to know the only true God, and Jesus 
Christ whom he has sent (or created) is 
everlasting life. It is one thing to know that 
there is a theological Power, and quite an- 
other thing to know in what that Power con- 
sists. Read what Jesus tells the Jews on 
this subject, in John viii. 18, 19. 

The many casualties besides disease which 
are now causing the death of many of the 
human race, must also be obviated before 
the perpetuation of the lives and bodies of 
the whole of the latter part of the race can 



152 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

be accomplished. But as, in accordance with 
the evolutionary, magnetic Seed Law of Life 
in nature, there must be a means or cause 
to produce each and every effect, and be- 
cause the means which will obviate these 
casualties is not yet in sight, the fact that 
the human race will be enabled to perpetu- 
ate their own being, can only be determined 
by its accomplishment through time; for it 
will take a thousand years to prove that men 
will live that long; but because the mag- 
netic treatment by which disease, and death 
caused by it, can be obviated, is now avail- 
able, its present realization will plant the 
seed of faith in the minds of men, so enabling 
them to foresee that the evolutionary, mag- 
netic Seed Law of Life ,which created them, 
will in due time, through them, also de- 
velop the means which will obviate all seem- 
ingly insurmountable obstacles, by the natu- 
ral, regenerating, evolutionary changes 
which will take place in the human race, 
and the improvements which they will make 
in their surroundings in the near future, 
and throughout the incoming thousand year 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 153 

age, and reign of the true light, which is 
the living Christ, in those who have part 
in the first resurrecton, who are figuratively 
called the saints (2 Thess. i. 10-12), for, 
instead of becoming mbecles by old age, 
they will, during that thousand years, be- 
come more and more active both in body 
and mind, as they gradually change from 
the mortal to the immortal state. 

In Isaiah, Ixv. 22, we are told that ''They 
shall not build and another inhabit; they 
shall not plant and another eat; for as the 
days of a tree are the days of my people, 
and my elect shall long enjoy the work of 
their hands. ' ' 

This magnetic treatment is the real basis 
of all that is called Faith Cure, Divine Heal- 
ing, Christian Science, etc. And although 
thousands are successfully healing and be- 
ing healed, some by their own mental, mag- 
netic power, and others by the physical 
magnetic power and treatment, yet before 
they can by its use accomplish the first 
resurrection in themselves, and so begin to 
put on immortality, their brain must get 



154 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

the true knowledge of the generating, gov- 
erning and sustaining power of the mag- 
netic Seed Law of Life in themselves, and 
fully believe that its magnetic power can 
and will maintain and perpetuate their life 
being . As implied in Hebrews xi. 6. 

In Hebrews xi. 1, we are figuratively told 
that, ^' Faith is the substance of things hoped, 
for, the evidence of things not seen." Read 
the whole chapter and see what great things 
w^ere done by faith; and although those 
faithful people saw, from the evolutionary 
workings of the Seed Laws of nat.ure, that 
those promises, which all pertain to ever- 
lasting life, would be realized by the human 
race in due time, yet we are virtually told, 
in verses 13-18 of the same chapter, that 
they all died without receiving the promise, 
because they looked for it to come from a 
supernatural, personal God, after they died 
and reached a better country, which they 
called heaven. 

The ancients, as well as the people at this 
time, overlooked the fact that the firmam^ent 
which surrounds the earth is the invisible, 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 155 

material kingdom of heaven. We are figur- 
atively told in Genesis i. 8 that God called 
the firmament heaven; for its nature and 
correlated position in the kingdoms of nature 
give it its name. When our feet are on 
earth, our head and body are in heaven, and 
we cannot live out of it. In Acts vii. 49, 
' we are told that heaven is God's throne, and 
the earth is his footstool. We are also told, 
in 2 Corinthians vi. 16, that we are the tem- 
ple (or dwelling-place) of the living God. 
So the living God is in us as our life, and 
we are in heaven, with our feet on the earth. 
This makes the above statement philosophi- 
cally true. 

In Galatians iii. we are figuratively told 
that everlasting life, with all its blessings, 
are to come to all nations by the evolution- 
ary, generating process and working power 
of the infinite, self-existent, magnetic Seed 
Law of Life, which was in the infinite Seed 
Word which was in*the beginning, and which 
was the living God and Father of all things. 
In Galatians iii. 6, we are figuratively told 
that Abraham believed God, and it was ac- 



156 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

counted to him for righteousness, or right 
doings. Where is the intelligent man who 
would not believe God if he was a Person and 
would come and talk with him, he knowing 
him to be God? But because those truths 
were inspired in Abraham ^s mind, by his 
observation of the workings of the invisible, 
magnetic Seed Law of Life in the visible 
things of nature, it was not so easily be- 
lieved, although believing it is true right- 
eousness, or right doings. 

We know that God the Father never spoke 
vocally to Abraham or any other man, for in 
John V. 37 Jesus, whose word must be yea 
and amen from a Bible view-point, told the 
Jews- — who were the only people to whom 
God the Father is ever, in the Bible, figura- 
tively said to have spoken — that they had 
neither heard the Father's voice at any time, 
nor seen his shape. This not only tells us 
that God did not speak vocally to Abraham, 
but also that God the Father is not in the 
shape of a person. 

Natural Philosophy and the figurative 
language of the Bible both tell us that the 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 157 

magnetic Seed Law of Life, which is the 
living God and Father of all things, never 
speaks vocally, but that its workings in the 
kingdoms of nature are its true language — 
the ''pure language'' which, in Zephaniah iii. 
9, we are told shall be turned to the people, 
that they may all call upon the name of the 
Lord, to serve him with one consent. 

We practically learn that the knowledge 
of the workings of the magnetic Seed Law 
of Life is good, and is the tree of life, or 
everlasting life, to them that get it. And 
because supernatural theology has darkened 
the minds of the human race on the theolo- 
gical subject, and prevented the people from 
getting that knowledge, it is evil and death 
to them, for it caused the magnetic Seed Law 
of Life — the living God of nature — to give 
its aggregate Son, or first part of the human 
race, to be sacrificed on its own seed cross, 
for that first and perpetual omission, which 
became the perpetual commission, of the ori- 
ginal sin of the world of mankind. Its sac- 
rifice was figuratively represented by the 
crucifixion of Jesus on the Jewish, or Roman, 



158 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

cross. And those sacrifices are both repre- 
sented in our wonderful diagram, No. 6, 
which is attached to this book, which when 
closed represents the great, living, working 
seed cross of all seed kinds of being, which 
were the infinite Seed Word, which was in 
the beginning, and which was God. And 
when opened, it represents the cross of the 
crucifixion, which also means death to the 
Life, which is hidden from the view of the 
human race until they get the true knowl- 
edge of that infinite, magnetic Seed Law of 
Life, which is hidden firom the view of the 
human brain as an instinctive faculty, when 
closed up. So it represents both the life 
B.nd the death of all things. 

We are figuratively told in Isaiah xlv. 15, 
that the Creator of all things is truly a God 
that hideth himself. And in viii. 13, 14. we 
are told that the Lord of hosts, which should 
be for a sanctuary, has become a stone of 
stumbling, and rock of offence to both the 
houses of Israel; for a gin and a snare to 
the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 

The death of the birthright to everlasting 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 159 

life is evidently the first death; and the 
death and promiscuous disintegration of the 
whole mortal human bein^, as the result of 
the unavoidable wrong act of the first Adam, 
or inner mind man, is evidently the second 
death. 

The whole human race cannot have part 
in both deaths nor both resurrections. Those 
who have part in the first resurrection can- 
not have part in the second death. But they 
will be the means by which the second resur- 
rection will be accomplished, as figuratively 
shoT^Ti in 1. Corinthians xv. 21 and Hebrews 
xi. 39, 40. 

Paul, in 1. Corinthians xv. is evidently con- 
sidering the whole resurrection. Those cor- 
ruptible and mortal beings whom he says 
shall put on incorruption and immortality 
as the substantiative of the first resurrec- 
tion, are evidently those who are yet alive 
in this mortal and corruptible state when 
the first resurrection begins in them. Their 
second Adam, or inner mind man, is now 
practically dead and buried in them. They 
are figuratively called ''dead in Christ." In 



160 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

that feature of their case, their bodies and 
present, religious, worshipful life is called 
the grave in which their dead second Adam, 
or inner mind man, or their Christ, is bur- 
ied, as figuratively taught in Luke xi. 44, 
where Jesus tells the people of his day also 
that they are as graves which appear not. 

The second Adam, or inner mind man, now 
merely exists in the brain of the human race, 
prospectively, about as an oak tree exists 
in an acorn, or as many kernels of wheat 
exist in one kernel, in embryo or latent seed 
principle, as if waiting for a suitable con- 
dition of mind to come in the human race 
which will permit it to come forth in them, 
as a newborn babe, and then develop into 
mental manhood, it being constituted of the 
knowledge of the good and evil workings 
of the magnetic Seed Law of Life in the 
theocratic corporation of nature. — See John 
iii. 7. 

See the parable in which Jesus sets this 
forth in John xii.. 24: ''Except a corn of 
wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth 
alone ; but if it die, it bringeth forth much 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 161 

fruit." In this figure Jesus represents 
himself by the corn of wheat, and the pros- 
pective second Adam, or inner mind man, 
in the human race in due time, as the much 
fruit to be produced by him as the repre- 
sentative Seed Christ, or evolutionary Seed 
Law of Life, as also taught in this parable 
in Mark iv. 16-29. See also 1. Cor. xv. 23. 

The dead or dormant second Adam, the 
Christ, or inner mind man, in the human 
race, is evidently the dead to whom Jesus 
refered when he spoke to the living motals 
around him, saying, '* Awake thou that 
sleepest and arise from the dead, and the 
Christ (which is the magnetic Seed Law of 
Life working in their brain) shall give thee 
light,'' (an increase of life), as figuratively 
taught in Ephesians v. 14-19. 

Natural Philosophy tells us that the dead 
there mentioned could not be those who 
previously died and disintegrted back into 
the elements and so passed off the stage of 
action as personal beings; for they have no 
more to do w^ith any personal acts which 
take place, until the second resurrection. 



162 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

What saith the figurative language of the 
Bible on this subject? 

In Ecclesiastecs iii., beginning at verse 18, 
Solomon says, ''I said in my heart (or de- 
sired in my mind) concerning the estate of 
the sons of men, that God might manifest 
to them, and that they might see, that they 
are beasts (or natural,, mortal beings). For 
that which befalleth the sons of men, be- 
falleth beasts also; even one thing befalleth 
them; a^ the one dieth, so dieth the other; 
yea, they have all the one breath; so that 
man (in that respect) hath no pre-eminence 
above a beast; for all is vanity (or destruct- 
ible). All go unto one place; all are of the 
dust, and all turn to dust again." In verse 
21 he asks the very important question, 
'^Who knoweth the spirit (or life) of man 
whether it goeth upward, and the spirit (or 
life) of the baest, whether it goeth down- 
ward to the earth?" — See Revised Version. 

Here we will notice again that the first, 
the instinctive ideas on this feature of this 
subject, inspired in the minds of the human 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 103 

race, is that the spirit of man is an inner 
person, who came down from heaven, and 
took upon it a natural body and being, and 
that when the natural man dies, the inner, 
the supernatural, or spirit man, returns to 
that place above the earth, which they call 
heaven. This is related to the idea that the 
earth is flat, and that out from it is upward; 
but because the earth is practically round, 
and because it revolves on its axis, to go 
out from it is going in opposite directions 
in space, at each interval of twelve hours. 
Out from the earth is neither up nor down 
in space ; and besides that, the earth travels 
at the rate of about eighteen miles each sec- 
ond in its orbit around the sun. At twelve 
o'clock at night, the earth is about 778,000 
miles away from where it was in space at 
noon. Hence Solomon, who repre^jents wis- 
dom, or Natural Philosophy, might w^ell sug- 
gest the question, Who knows, or can prove, 
that the spirit, or life, of man goes upward 
to a location called heaven, and that the 
spirit or life, of the beast goes downward to 
the earth? Let us still remember Paul's 



164 THE BOOK OF LIFE 

advice, to prove all things, and retain what 
is practically and evidently true. 

Supernautral Theology says that state- 
ment in Ecclesiates refers only to the wick- 
ed, and merely to the mortal part of their 
being; but that man has an immortal soul 
that cannot die. As evidence against this 
we will quote from several passages. First, 
Ecclesiastes ix. 1-6, where it is Avritten that 
all things come alike to all. There is one 
event to the righteous and to the wicked. 
In the third verse he says, ^^This is an evil 
among all things, that there is one event 
unto all; yea, the heart (or mind) of the 
sons of men is full of evil, and madness (or 
derangement on the theological subject) is 
in their minds while they live, and after 
that they go to the dead." In verse 4 he 
says, ''For to him that is joined to all the 
living there is hope ; for a living dog is bet- 
ter than a dead lion.'' In verse 5 he says, 
''For the living (under the present condi- 
tion of things) know that they must die; 
but the dead know not anything; neither 
have they any more a reward, for the mem- 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 165 

ory of them is forgotten/' (or they have 
lost their mind and memory, and their whole 
being also). In verse 6 he says, ^'Also their 
love and their hatred and thoir envy are now 
perished ; neither have they any more a por- 
tion for ever (or for the age) in anything 
that is done under the sun.'' 

In Ezekiel xviii. 4 it is written, '^Behold 
all souls are mine. As the soul of the father, 
so also the soul of the son, is mine. The 
soul that sinneth (or violates the laws of 
its own being) it shall die." In Psalm cxlvi. 
4, it is written, *' Man's breath goeth forth; 
he returneth to his earth; in that very day 
his thoughts perish." 

So Natural Philosophy and the figurative 
language of the Bible both tell us that when 
human beings die, they go into corruption 
and disintegration; that the indestructible 
molecules of which their bodies and lives 
were constituted, and which, in the Bible, 
are figuratively called dust, returns into the 
earth and atmosphere and heaven frord 
w^hence they came in molecular form; and 
they then cease to exist as organic, conscious 



166 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

beings, until the second resurrection, as 
clearly shown figuratively in the passages 
cited. See also Genesis iii. 19 and Job xiv. 
on this feature of the subject. 

Natural Philosophy tells us also that those 
who begin to put on immortality in this life, 
and so have part in the first resurrection, 
will live on until the mortal part of their 
being has been consumed away, and they 
are changed into immortal beings — in the 
Bible figuratively called spiritual beings. 
They will then have the magnetic or affini- 
tive power to reorganize, and so raise their 
nearest and most intimate friends, who had 
died and passed into the molecular state, 
in the firmament or heaven kingdom of na- 
ture, before the molecular substance of their 
brain had obtained the true knowledge of 
the workings of the magnetic laws of life 
in their own being; and those first raised 
ones w^ill then also be enabled to affinitively 
reorganize and raise their nearest and most 
familiar friends and neighbors, who died 
correlatively through the past ages. 

Those who lost infants and youths will so 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 107 

have the opportunity of reorganizing and 
raising, developing and educating them up 
into immortal adults, with more joy than 
can be comprehended in this mortal state, 
as figuratively shown in Jeremiah xxxi. 15- 
40. After this they shall live on without 
interruption in loving sociability throughout 
the endless ages of the future half of eter- 
nity. So saith Natural Philosophy and the 
figurative language of the Bible. 

In Revelations xx. 14, in figuratively set- 
ting forth the destruction of the last enemies 
of man, John says that death and hell were 
cast into the lake of fire — which lake of fire, 
he says, is the second death. In verse 15, 
he says that whosoever was not found writ- 
ten n the book of life, was cast into the lake 
of fire — the second death. 

Take special notice of the tact that the 
second death is here called the lake of fire, 
light-giving element, it figuratively repre- 
sents the magnetic Seed Life Power, of na- 
ture, in its evolutionary process of creation, 
by destroying the old things, and out of them 
producing the new. — See Heb. xii. 29. It 



168 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

destroys the useless and destructible parts 
of all who come into it, and also purifies 
and enlivens their indestructible parts, in 
its due time and way. 

It being called a lake of fire indicates that 
it is so large, and far-reaching in its nature 
and workings, that all destructible things 
and beings must come into it in due time, 
as natural cause and effect, through the 
fixed laws of nature, as also figuratively im- 
plied in Malachi iii. 1-3; iv. and 1. Corin- 
thiana iii. 11-15. 

The next point we will notice is that death 
and hell were both cast into the lake of fire, 
or second death, and so destroyed by it, in 
the figure in Revelations xx. 14. John clear- 
ly implies that death will destroy itself in the 
human race, by destroying their mortal and 
destructible parts, as death must cease when 
there are no mortal beings to die. And with 
the destruction of this mortal state, hell also 
ceases to be, as it consists in the troubles 
and trials of this mortal and corruptible 
state. — See Acts ii. 27. 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 169 

We notice next that the hike of fire, the 
second death, had no destroying power over 
those who had part in the first resurrection. 
In Revelations xxi. 3-5, John says, ''I heard 
a voice out of heaven saying. Behold the 
tabernacle (or conscious dwelling-place) of 
God is with men, and he will dwell with 
them, and they shall be his people, and God 
himself shall be with them, and be thair God 
(or life), and God shall wipe away all tears 
from theih eyes ; and there shall be no more 
death, neither sorrow nor crying; neithe 
shall there be any more pain; for the fomer 
things (the corruptible conditions of the hu- 
man race) are passed away.'' 

The first philosophic point which we will 
notice in these last figurative statements of 
the Revelations, is that because the theocra- 
tic corporation of nature is consecutively, 
correlatively, cause and effect, its own aggre- 
gate, inherent, magnetic law of life being the 
cause of all effects, it is evidently the God 
that wipes away all tears from the eyes of 
the human race, by destroying the mortal 
and corruptible parts of their being, by de- 



170 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

veloping tliem up into the immortal degree 
of their creation. 

John clearly implies in the above quoted 
passage that death and hell, with all their 
terrors, belong to this mortal and corrupt- 
ible state, as in summing up the cause of the 
higher or immortal condition of the human 
race, he says, ^'For the former things are 
passed away/' And in verse 5, he farther 
says, ^^And he that sat upon the throne 
(which was evidently the creating, governing 
and sustaining LaAv of Life) said (by its 
destroying and developing acts). Behold, I 
make all things new/' Old things must pass 
away, as new things develop out of them. 

The philosophy of these and other figura- 
tive statements in the Bible will become ob- 
vious when we know and bear in mind that 
the working, magnetic Seed Law of Life is 
personified in the Bible, and so-called God, 
and Christ also. 

Because all things in nature are primarily 
constituted in molecular form, the molecules 
all being magnetic and affinitively correlat- 
ed, the magnetic Seed Law of Life in them 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 171 

affinitively perceives and responds to every 
motion of everything in nature, and to every 
thought of the human mind, whether in har- 
mony with its fixed laws or in violation of 
them. 

When we ask that magnetic Seed Law of 
Life for anything which we need, from any 
part of the theocratic corporation of nature, 
by performing the necessary labor, or by com- 
plying with the fixed laws which govern that 
part of the corporation, we receive the things 
so asked for, as true cause and effect. 

What says the figurative language of the 
Bible on that subject? In Matthew vii. 7, 
8, Jesus says, ''Ask, and it shall be given 
you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it 
shall be opened unto you.'' In verses 9 and 
10, he says, ''Which of you, whom if his son 
ask bread, will he give him a stone ? or if he 
ask a fish, will he give him a serpentf 

If we violate the magnetic seed laws in 
any part of the corporation of nature, or of 
our own being, whether willingly or through 
ignorance of their nature, we virtually ask 
for and receive injury, in proportion to the 



172 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

violation of these laws, as legitimate cause 
and effects. In Poverbs xi. 21, this is figur- 
atively expressed, where it is written, 
^^ Though hand join hand, the wicked shall 
not go unpublished; but, the seed of the 
righteous (or right doing) shall be deliv- 
ered.'' 

It is evident by reasonable investigation 
that every person, corporation or govern- 
ment conducting business in accordance with 
the fixed, evolutionary, business and physi- 
cal laws of nature, prosper and succeed, 
and those who do not, get into trouble and 
disintegration, which in the aggregate, is 
figuratively called death and hell in tlie 
Bible. This is clearly shown in Psalm ix. 17, 
where it is written that the wicked, or vio- 
laters of law, shall be turned into hell, with 
all the nations that forget, or never knew, 
the living God of nature. In Luke xvi. 19- 
31, Jesus illustrates this in the parable of 
the Rich Man and Lazarus. Here the rich 
man represents the Jewish nation, as it was 
the great representative nation at that time. 
The other nations, w^ho were then called 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 173 

Gentiles, were aggregately represented by 
the poor man, here figuratively called Laza- 
rus. 

They are both said to have died. The 
Jewish nation died out of their high, rich, 
proud position; and the Gentiles died out 
of their poor and low state, in which they 
were under the necessity of asking favors 
from the Jews; and aggregately they be- 
».ame the favored people, as, by their own 
persevering acts, they became the ruling, 
governmental powers, which exalted position 
is here called Abraham's bosom, because the 
promises were given to them through the 
seed of Abraham. And the Jews found 
themselves surrounded with troubles and 
national destruction, in the parable called 
hell.— See also Gal. iii. 16-29. 

In this parable it is said that Lazarus lay 
at the rich man's gate, and that the dogs 
came and licked his sores. It is a notable 
fact that the Jews called the people of other 
nations dogs, and that dogs heal their ow^n 
sores by licking them. This represents the 
fact that the nations (called Gentiles) helped 



174 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

themselves up out of their low state, by their 
own legitimate efforts in civilization, and 
by equipping themselves with modern im- 
plements of war, and education in their use, 
in accordance with the fixed, evolutionary 
Seed Law of Life, which is the true and 
living God of nature. And the Jews as a 
nation neglected those duties, and trusted in 
their personal God for their protection, and 
were therefore overpoweed by the Gntiles. 

So the Jews evidently stumbled over the 
idea of a personal God, which is the great 
stumbling stone of all nations ; and therefore 
they made the mistake of supposing that the 
moral law, and the ordinances and sacrifices, 
were given them by Moses and the Prophets 
as a means of worshipping their personal 
God, though they were intended to govern 
their actions in life, and to direct their minds 
to the evolutionary Seed Law of Life, which 
is the living God, and Seed Christ also, as 
clearly implied in Galatians iii. 24-29; Isa- 
iah viii. 14-22; and Romans ix. 29-33. 

Natural Philosophy tells us that the Bible 
is the figurative, historic account of the Crea- 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 175 

tor and all created things, and their good 
and evil workings. Thus its teachings are 
naturally divided into three lineal, correlat- 
ed and inseparable parts or features. The 
first one figuratively sets forth the evolu- 
tionary generation of all things, from the 
infinite Seed Word up to man, in his primi- 
tive, wild, or garden state. Its other two 
features constitute the figurative account of 
the evolutionary generation of the two forms 
of mind being in the human race, on the 
theological subject, by the two faculties of 
their brain, which we ha_ve considered, and 
the unavoidable enmity and strife between 
them in their different degrees of develop- 
ment and dispensations. 

These two faculties both being mind gen- 
erators of their own kind of knowledge, they 
are figuratively called women in the Bible. 
In Galatians iv. 30, they are called the bond- 
woman and the free-woman. The bond- 
woman being first, she represents the human 
brain as an instinctive faculty; and the sec- 
ond, the free-woman, represents the human 
brain as a legitimate reasoning faculty. 



176 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

Read the whole of Galatians iv. This feature 
of our subject is nicely explained therein. 

The supernatural, theological mind being, 
which is the seed product of the bond- 
woman, is illegitimate, deceptive and ag- 
gressively warlike against the seed product 
of the free-woman, or the human brain as a 
legitimate, united, instinctive and reasoning 
faculty, (Gal. iv. 19-31), which is the second, 
or inner mind man, on the theological sub- 
ject, which is constituted of Natural Theol- 
ogy, It is legitimate, true, light-giving, and 
peaceable in all cases ; for the knowledge on 
which it is based is obtained from the work- 
ings of the magnetic Seed Law of Life in 
the kingdoms of nature, and self-compound- 
ed into living, conscious mind form, in the 
human brain, by its own investigations as a 
legitimate, united male and female, or in- 
stinctive and reasoning faculty on the theo- 
logical subject. 

When this is understood and remembered, 
the figurative language of the Bible is easily 
understood, especially the Revelations, as 
John specially sets forth the different fea- 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 177 

tures of the development of these two kinds 
of mind, and their different dispensations 
of opposition in the human race, and their 
working influence over the governments of 
the world. So it may be readily seen which 
of the two women, and their kind of seed 
product, or inner mind being, is represented 
in each figure, by the character of the wom- 
an, beast, tree, thing or institution used to 
represent them. 

In Matthew vii. 16-20, Jesus tells us that 
every tree is known by its own fruit. He 
says a good (or legitimate) tree cannot bring 
forth bad fruit, and that a bad tree cannot 
bring forth good fruit. So Natural Philoso- 
phy tells us that the brain, as an instinctive 
faculty, cannot generate good and legitimate 
theological knowledge and minds. 

In Revelations xvii. 1, 2, John says, ^ 'There 
came one of the seven angels (or dispensa- 
tions of light)' and talked with me, saying, 
Cime up hither (in mind), and I will show 
you the judgment (or exposition) of the 
great harlot, that sitteth upon many waters; 
with whom the kings of the earth have com- 



178 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

mitted fornication, and the inhabitants of 
the erath have been made drunk with the 
wine of her fornication/' In verse 15, it is 
explained that the waters in the first verse 
represent multitudes of people of different 
nations and languages. From the descrip- 
tion in verse 3, we learn that the woman 
there mentioned represents the bond-woman, 
or the brain as an instinctive faculty in the 
human race; and the scarlet-colored beast, 
in which the woman sits, represents the ag- 
gregate, organized, theological systems of 
the world, which are constituted of the first 
form of mind being, on the theological sub- 
ject, generated by the bond-wiman, whose 
excessive, supernatural, or spiritual teach- 
ing and doctrines, figuratively called wine, 
have deceived and deranged the minds of 
the people of the nations, on the theological 
subject. 

Natural Philosophy tells us that it must 
be the kind of theology which has been uni- 
versally taught, and entertained in the minds 
of the people, which has so deceived, de- 
ranged and intoxicated them : and evidently 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 179 

that is Supernatural Theologry. Natural 
Theology could not have deceived them, 
even if it were deceptive, for they have uni- 
versally abstained from its teaching and use. 
Truth must be the standard of sanity and 
temperance on all subjects; so the all-im- 
portant question must be, What is the aggre- 
gate truth on the theological subject ? This 
is what Pilate desired to know when he asked 
Jesus the question, "What is truth?'* — See 
John xviii. 38. To this great question we 
find all things in the Theocratic Corpora- 
tion of Nature, including the infinite Seed 
Word, positively afi:'irming, by their own lin- 
eal, correlated and inseparable, philosophic, 
magnetic or aifinitive seed workings and life 
power, which is the living C4od of nature, 
that 

Natural Philosophy is absolute truth; 

All Nature is its basis. 
Its works are its own true book. 

Written all through the ages. 

In Kevelations xvii. 10. John says, '"'And 
there are seven kines : five are fallen, and 



180 THE BOOK OF LIFE 

one is, and the other is not yet come; and 
when he cometh, he must remain (with the 
beast) a ►short space, ^' of time until the 
beast goes into destruction or perdition. 

Natural Philosophy tells us that the 
seven kings are the same as represented by 
the seven heads in the third vers^e of the 
same chapter; and that they are the seven 
great fundamental principles of the mind 
being, or inner man, which are virtue, 
knowledge, temperance, patience, brotherly 
kindness, charity, and true godliness, as fig- 
uratively set forth in 2, Peter i. 5-11. 

Although all intelligent and civilized peo- 
ple recognize the fact that these seven head 
virtues are the true, universal, Christian, 
requisites in the evolutionary advancement 
and civilization of the human race, yet Sup- 
ernatural Theologians believe that only one 
of these — virtue — in their general use, con- 
stitutes a legitimate part of true Christian- 
ity, unless the others are used or adminis- 
tered in accordance with and authorized by 
their worshipful, supernatural, personal 
ideal of God. They teach that virtue, which 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 181 

is morality, constitutes one universal, funda- 
mental part of true Christianity; but they 
only recognize those of their own religious 
sects as their Christian brothers and sisters, 
and so extend the other five head virtues 
toward them in that special manner, al- 
though the whole civilized human race, who 
have these head virtues, are their Christian 
brothers and sisters, as clearly set forth in 
Ephesians iv. 4-25 and James i. 22-27. So, 
in a religious way, five of these virtues have 
fallen from them, one they have, and the 
seventh, which is true and universal godli- 
ness, has not yet come to them. 

In Revelations xiii. 18, John says, ''Here 
is wisdom. Let him that hath understand- 
ing (on this subject) count the number of 
the beast, for it is the number of a man; 
and his number is six hundred, three score 
and six" — 666. All things in nature have 
just three aggregate kinds of being as their 
lineal, three third parts, or the w^iole, of 
their corporate being, in single round num- 
bers, as we have found from the structure 
of the Seed Word. Organized Supernatural 



182 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

Theology has its three aggregate kinds of 
being — the Jewish, the Roman and the Pro- 
testant. Each of these have only the first 
six head virtues, and that only toward their 
own kind in each case. This made the three 
sixes — 666 — just what John said it was. The 
seventh — true godliness — has not yet come to 
them. 

In Revelations xx. 1-3, John says, he saw 
an angel come down from heaven, having 
the key of the bottomless pit, and a great 
chain in his hand. And he laid hold on the 
old serpent, the devil and Satan, and bound 
him a thousand years, and shut him up, and 
set a seal upon him, that he should deceive 
the nations no more till the thousand years 
"shall be fulfilled; and after that he shall be 
loosed a little season.'^ 

Natural Philosophy tells us that the angel 
here mentioned represents the second Adam, 
or inner mind man, in the human race, on 
the theological subject. The great chain 
represents the evolutionary chain of the 
creation of all things, as linked together 
from the infinite Seed Word up to man. 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 183 

The dragon, the old serpent ,the devil and 
Satan, and also the bottomless pit, represent 
different features of the first inner mind man 
on the theological subject. Being the first 
one formed in the human race, it was the 
old one called the serpent in Genesis iii. 1-14. 

Because that first form of mind is natur- 
ally and unavoidably constituted of instinc- 
tive theological ideas, they have no founda- 
tion except the human brain as an instinc- 
tive faculty, So it is virtually foundation- 
less, or bottomless. It is figuratively called 
the bottomless pit, because it naturally 
draws all men into it, and so deceives them, 
and thereby causes their death and destruc- 
tion. It is also figuratively called the dra- 
gon, the old serpent, the devil and Satan, 
in this parable. 

When men get the knowledge of the evo- 
lutionary chain of creation, they have the 
true knowledge of the Creator, which is the 
key that opens to their minds the fact that 
the theological ideas in the first form of 
mind being, on the theological subject, are 
f oundationleso or bottomless ; that casti it — 



184 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

the first form of mind — consciously into it- 
self, by showing it that it was its own origi-. 
nator, or Creator, and consciously seals it 
up there, so that it cannot deceive the peo- 
ple any more who get that knowledge. 

(This gives further light on the statement, 
which Jesus, in John viii. 44, made to the 
supernatural theologians of his time.) 

Although the supernatural, theological 
ideas, wihich constitute the first form of 
mind beast have always existed in the minds 
of the human race, as truth and light on 
that subject, yet they do not so exist in 
reality; so they are the mind being, or beast, 
which was, and is not, and yet is. — See Rev. 
xvii. 7, 8. So it will go into perdition, or 
destruction, by the coming, or generaton, 
of the second Adam, or inner mind man, on 
the theological subject, in the human race, 
when they begin to use their brain on that 
subject, as a legitimate, combined, instinc- 
tive and reasoning faculty, as figuratively 
implied in 2 Thessalonians ii. 8. 

In the judgment, or explanation, of that 
theological mother organism, figuratively 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 185 

called the beast in Revelations xvii. 3, John 
says, it was full of the names of blasphemy. 
This implies that her teachings and doc- 
trines are blasphemous. 

In Revelations xviii. 23, we are figuratively 
told that her merchants, or those who teach, 
or deal in, her doctrines, are of the great 
or highly educated men of the world. So 
they are aware that Natural Philosophy is 
a true and legitimate science. That being 
true, they should not object to having their 
teachings and doctrines judged by it and 
the figurative language of the Bible. 

In doing this, we will merely cite two or 
three similar cases to represent the aggre- 
gate of their teaching. First, we will notice 
that they virtually teach that a Person, call- 
ed God, created all things out of nothing, 
in six of our common days. After deliber- 
ate premeditation, and for a determinate 
purpose, in accordance with his foreknowl- 
edge, and also with the fact that he rules all 
things by the supreme counsel of his own 
will, he made a man of clay. But, contrary 
to his premeditated purpose, supreme will 



186 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

power, expectations, and verbal commands, 
this clay man ate an apple, or some other 
kind of fruit, they know not what, and al- 
though it was good for food, and very tempt- 
ing to the young and inexperienced hungry 
man and his wife, yet their personal God 
was »o disappointed and angry w4th, and re- 
vengeful against them, that, on account of 
that disobedient act, he put a curse upon 
them while they lived, and also created a 
place called hell, in which he would keep 
them alive after they were dead, and there 
torture, or punish them throughout the end- 
less ages of eternity. And not only upon 
those who committed the disobedient act did 
he place this curse, but he also determined 
to inflict the same curse and endle^js punish- 
ment upon the whole human race, which he 
would create in the future. 

Natural Philosophy tells us that these 
ideas are not only unphilosophic, and incon- 
sistent in themselves, but they are deroga- 
tory, slanderous, and therefore blasphemous, 
again.-^jt the name and character of their 
ideal God. It also tells us that calling God 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 187 

a person is derogatory and blasphemous 
against his name and character; first, be- 
cause a person could not fill the constituent 
and ancestral seed capacities required of the 
Creator of all things, as we have found by 
the construction of the infinite Seed AA^ord, 
which is God. 

Again, if God were a person, having the 
five senses, and could speak vocally with 
men, and rule them by the counsel of his 
own will, and did not do so, he would be 
accountable to them for willfeil neglect — 
they being his offspring. If we say he does 
not wish to do so, we only make him more 
incondstent, for the higher the person's posi- 
tion and ability, the greater is his responsi- 
bility, and the more there is required of him. 
— See Luke xii. 48. 

Endless punishment of any kind could not 
be disciplinary, so it would be unjust, cruel 
and revengeful, by whomsoever it might be 
administered. It is fortunate for the human 
race that the living God of nature has made 
eternal punishment impossible ; for death 
comes to the rescue of the afflicted, and so 



188 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

vetoes the demoniacal suggestion of eternal 
punishment. 

Thoise worshipful, supernatural, theologic- 
al ideas have so deranged the minds of many 
of the human race, that they seem to believe 
that they could sit in a place called heaven, 
and there enjoy eternal happiness, knowing 
that some of their own children, relatives 
and friends were actually writhing in hope- 
less and endless torture or punishment. 

It is from the literlitual interpretation of 
the Bible that they get those supernatural 
theological ideas; for the brain, as an in- 
stinctive faculty, tells us that the Bible is 
literally true, and that is what supernatural 
theologians believe and teach. The figura- 
tive language of the Bible is* just opposite 
to what it teaches when taken literally. That 
puts enmity between its literal and figurative 
teachings. So in order to get the true mean- 
ing of the Bible, we mu^st use our brain as 
a legitimate, combined, insitinctive and rea- 
soning faculty. 

The human brain as an instinctive faculty 
must take cognizance of the persons, places, 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 189 

things and institutions used as figures in the 
Bible, and so bring them into the mind in 
bulk, or aggregate form; and the same brain 
must be properly applied to them as a reason- 
ing faculty, and so analyze them in accord- 
ance with Natural Philosophy or the true 
and fixed laws . of nature, and so discover 
their true figurative meaning, instead of 
swallowing them in aggregate form, serpent 
fashion, so taking the figure as the truth, 
instead of that which it represents. 

Because Laipernatural theologians believe 
and teach that the Bible is literally true, 
they cannot understand its figurative lan- 
guage, so it has been as a sealed book to 
them, as figuratively stated in Isaiah xxix. 
11, 12. They teach their people that it is 
dangerous for them to reason on the theo- 
logical subject, because the light they so re- 
ceive is contrary to supernatural theology, 
and dangerous to their church systems. But 
could any sane man believe that a natural 
wild beast, with seven heads and ten horns, 
such as we have been considering, could in 
any way deceive the people of all nations? 



190 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

In 2 Thessalonians ii. 11, 12, we are figura- 
tively told that for this cause God sends them 
strong delusion, that they should believe a 
lie; that they might all be damned (or con- 
demned) who believed not the truth, but had 
pleasure in unrighteousness (or wrong and 
idolatrous doings.) 

Natural Philosophy tells us that there is 
no possible way for men to believe a lie, only 
by believing that it is the truth, and that it 
is impossible for men to believe a falsehood 
when they know it is false. When men have 
an idea of God formed, or set up, in their 
minds, which they worship and reverence, 
which is not the true and living God, they 
are unconsciously infidela and idolaters in 
every sense of the word. 

Natural Philosophy also tells us that there 
never has been, and never can be, conscious 
infidelity or idolatry entertained and prac- 
ticed by the human race. — See Rom. ii. 16-24. 
Yet it has been the great and perpetual sin 
of the world, by w^hich the human race have 
sinned against their own sioul, or life being; 
for it is the sin that is unto death, as figur- 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 191 

atively set forth in Ezekiel vi. Read also 
chapter vii. 

In John xvi. 1-11, Jesus tells us that it was 
really necessary that his mortal body should 
go into disintegration, and that his life, 
which was Christ, should return to the Fath- 
er — the infinite, magnetic Seed Law of Life, 
which was in the infinite, self-existent Seed 
Word, which was in the beginning with God, 
and which was the one God and Father of us 
all. For unless Jesus had gone out of the 
personal form, and back into the invisible 
Father state, and there become its conscious, 
magnetic working power, man would always 
have believed in his person, and the true 
knowledge of their second Adam, or inner 
mind man, which is alsa the living Christ 
and everlasting life in thoise who get it, 
^ould never have come to the human race. 

The second Adam, or inner mind man, or 
Christ, has been imprisoned in the human 
brain as an instinctive faculty, in a sick, 
naked, hungry and thirsty condition, wait- 
ing for mien to use their brain as a legiti- 
mate, combined, instinctive and reasioniniir 



192 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

faculty on the theological subject, so that he 
might come forth in the human race, 
to be glorified in them, as figuratively 
set forth in Romans viii. 16-17 and 
2. Thessalonians i. 10-12. And because 
the minds of the people of all nations 
have been so deceived by the teachings of 
supernatural theology, they have not only 
neglected to visit him (Christ) in his im- 
pri/3oned, sick, naked, hungry and thirsty 
condition, and giv him food, drink and cloth- 
ing; but they have persecuted him when- 
ever he has made his appearance in the minds 
of any of the human race, as we have been 
noticing, and as figuratively shown in Reve- 
lations xii. and John xv. 20, 21. So they 
are now in the position where Jesus said 
they would be at the second coming of the 
Christ, in organized mind form in the peo- 
ple, called the saints, as figuratively stated 
in Matthew xxv. 31-46. 

All who, by their scientific investigations 
of the things of nature, have in any way been 
giving light on its working3 and fixed laws, 
and those who have been teaching the arts 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 193 

and sciences, have been helping the second 
coming of Christ in the human race, and so 
have visited him in his imprisoned state, and 
so watered, clothed and fed him, al- 
though they did not know it. Neither did 
those religious people, ivho have been fight- 
ing and persecuting Natural Theology, know 
that it wasi the Christ and the living God, 
the Father, whom they were fighting and 
persecuting, and at enmity with. When that 
knowledge comes to them, it will scorch their 
minds with the fire of remorse and disap- 
pointment forever, or as long as they re- 
member it ; so they are said to go away into 
everla^sting punishment, as figuratively 
stated in Matthew xxv. 46. 

The others, who have unconsiciously help- 
ed him, will rejoice because they have done 
wha,t was beneficial to the advancement of 
the conscious living Christ in their fellow- 
men, as figuratively stated in Matthew xxv. 
40. 

Now, the true knowledge which constitutes 
the second Adam, or inner mind man, or con- 



194 THE BOOK OF LIFE 

scions living Christ, has come forth in or- 
ganic form, fortified by its) own boundless, 
self-existent facts and figures, which cannot 
be controverted, as set forth in this little 
book; for Natural Theology, which is the 
foundation and origin of Natural Philosophy 
and the figurative language of the Bible, is 
virtually its author and .subject-matter; for 
the writer has written just what was inspired 
in his mind by his legiimate investigations 
of the Seed Word and the working of its 
infinite, magnetic Seed Law of Life in the 
kingdoms of nature. — See i. Cor. iii. 

Because this normally developed, natural, 
theological, mind being is gentle and peace- 
able, it is figuratively called the Lamb, and 
those in whom it has come are ^^ called, and 
chosen, and faithful.^' So when the beast 
makes war with it, he will be overcome, for 
the Lamb is King of kings and Lord or lords. 
— See Rev. xii. 14 and xiv. 1. 

In Matthew x. 26, we are told that there 
is nothing covered that shall not be revealed, 
or hid that shall not be known. We are also 
told in Ephesians v. 13, that all things that 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 195 

are reproved are made manifest by the light ; 
for whatsoever maketh manifest is light. 

All aupernatural, theological, religious 
sects are evidently lineal descendants of that 
great mother system of Revelation xvii., so 
they all have the mother's main feature, 
which is the supernatural, personal idea of 
God — some in a modified form, for the dif- 
ferent sects each ha^fe its own idea of their 
Gods, mixed goodness and severity, likes and 
dislikes, which greatly influences it in its 
teaching and method of worship. They are 
all inclined to force their views upon all 
men, so far as the governments of the world 
will permit. They send their missionaries 
into every foreign country, as soon as opened 
up so as to admit them, and strive to force 
their ideal God upon the people whom they 
call heathen. When the people object to 
and resist their teachings, and endeavor to 
drive the invading missionaries away, they 
and those who sent them pray pervently to 
their pei^sonatl God for protection, whom 
they say always protects those who believe 
in and work for him. When he fails to pro- 



190 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

tect them in their time of need, as he always 
does, (a>s Bible proof that the personal God 
always fails to help people in their time of 
need, we refer to the case of Jesus, when he 
was nailed on the cross, and about to expire, 
.at which time, judging from what he ^md, 
he needed and had expected help from the 
supposed personal God, for he cried out, ''My 
God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?'' 
—Matt, xxvii. 46; Mark xv. 34,) they then 
usually call on their home government to 
protect them, as its subjects or citizens, as 
the case may be, in accordance with inter- 
national law. After their home government 
does so protect them, they still claim and 
believe that it was their personal God who 
caused their government to do so, thus rob- 
bing the natural, governmental powers of 
the thanks and praise of protecting them, 
and giving it to their ideal personal God, 
though we are figuratively told in Romans 
xiii. 1-6, that the governments are ordanied 
of the living God of nature. 

In Malachi iii. 8, 9, we are told that those 
religious people are robbing the living God 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. 197 

of nature, though they do not know it. In 
that way they have cauF»ecI, and are causing, 
the governments of the world much trouble, 
and many cruel and bloody wars. There are 
also many indications that were it not for 
the strong arm of the governmental powers, 
the different religious sects would constantly 
be at war with each other, although they 
claim to be the civilizing power of the world. 
We find them encroaching on the liberties 
of the people, even trying to take away from 
the laboring classes the liberty of using the 
Sabbath day, which is intended for a day 
of rest and honest recreation for them, and 
convert it into a day of servitude, in accord- 
ance with their ideals of worshipping their 
personal God. See what Jesus tells those 
religious people of his day about the Sabbath. 
—Matt. xii. 1-8 ; Mark ii. 27. 

Natural Philosophy and the figurative 
language of the Bible tell us that the ulti- 
mate results of their encroachments on the 
people's liberties, if allowed to work, would 
be the same as in the precedent example 
which the world experienced. In that period 



198 THE BOOK OF LIFE. 

of about 1,260 years of albsolute rule of 
Church and State, history and the figurative 
language of the Bible both tell us that it was 
the darkest night of despotic tyranny and 
oppression that the world has ever known. 
Men were not allowed to reason on any sub- 
ject to give them light that might be detri- 
mental to the influence and ruling power of 
the church. Consequently the world made 
very little progress in improvements and 
civilization during that time. Revelations 
xiii. 

Jesus, foreseeing that calamity, said: '^I 
must work the works of him that sent me 
while it is day ; the night comethwhen no man 
can work/' (or teach what he was teaching.) 
John ix. 4. So we have great reason to thank 
the governmental power, and its great Na- 
poleon and benefactor, who gave the abso- 
lute ruling power of Church and State its 
first physical death-blow, for that gave men 
liberty to reason on many subjects. 

But we have much greater reason to thank 
the founders of this mighty Republic of the 
United States, whose glorious constitution 



THE BOOK OF LIFE. VM 

gives men perfect liberty to use their reason- 
ing faculty on all subjects, including the 
theological, during whose glorious rule, in 
so short a tinxe, nearly all the great improve- 
ments and art8 and sciences of the v^orld, and 
advancement in civilization, have come into 
being. Through its influence the religious 
sects have been compelled to greatly modify 
their religious tenets and teachings. And 
may those modifying influences proceed un- 
til this glorious government ' ' of. the people, 
by the people, and for the people'' shall have 
divested their legislative halls of the last 
chaplainary relics of ideal worship, and until 
the GoddesB of Liberty shall have spread its 
modifying and civilizing influence over the 
'Whole earth ; until every government of the 
Avorld shall have divested their courts and 
legislative halls of the same relics ; and until 
peace, and good will toward all men, with 
everlasting life, shall rest upon, and remain 
with the human race, from henceforth, and 
forever.— AMEN.
